User Settings

The User Settings give administrators choices about how to store and utilize users’ preferences, such as which Dashboards and/or Reports to execute when they enter Exago.

Scheduler Settings

Reports can be emailed or scheduled for recurring automated delivery to an email address. The Scheduler Settings are used to configure these services.

Roles

Roles are created to specify how a user or group of users interfaces with Exago. Roles can restrict access to folders or data objects. Roles can also override the General Settings.

Error Message Glossary

This article serves as a glossary of error messages that may be displayed during the configuration or use of Exago BI. A list of potential causes and remedies is also included.

Programmable Object Settings

The Programmable Object Settings enable you to specify names for parameters that will be passed from Exago to stored procedures, web services, or .NET Assemblies. Using these parameters can increase performance and reduce server resources when using these kinds of Data Objects.

Parameters

Parameters are used throughout the Exago application to store values. Although parameters can be created and given a default value in the Administration Console, parameters are designed to be set at runtime through the API.

Parameters

A video demonstration of using Exago Parameters to store and reuse variables throughout the application, apply common values to multiple sort and filter fields, prompt users for values at report runtime or storing and passing user identification variables.

Other Settings

Change the Other Settings for configuration items that do not fall into other categories. This article applies to the Admin Console > General > Other Settings.

Main Settings

The main settings are the basic options for Exago, such as temporary file path and available report export file types. This article applies to the Admin Console > General > Main Settings.

Join Configuration

Joins specify to Exago the relationship between Data Objects. This article applies to the Admin Console > Data > Joins settings, where joins are defined at the base-configuration level.

Filter Settings

The Filter Settings provide control over what filter options are exposed to users and how the dropdowns within filters behave.

Feature/UI Settings

The Feature/UI settings allow administrators to hide various features in the user interface.

Database Settings

The Database Settings allow administrators to adjust how Exago interfaces with its Data Sources. Additional type-specific settings allow you to specify which driver to utilize when connecting to each data source.

Data Sources

Data Sources establish the connection between Exago and a database or a web service. Although typically only one database is used, Exago can join data from different sources into a single report.

Data Objects

Data Objects are the tables, views, methods, stored procedures, functions and custom SQL made accessible from the Data Sources for reports. This article applies to the Admin Console > Data > Objects settings.

Custom Options

Custom Options allow for the definition of settings that users can modify on a per-report basis in the Report Designer. Options can be accessed during report execution by Server Events or Custom Functions.

Custom Functions

Administrators may create additional custom functions using high level coding languages which will be accessible to end-users of the Report Designer.

Custom Filter Functions

Custom Filter Functions provide the ability to make functions that will dynamically calculate a value for a filter using high level code.

Custom Aggregate Functions

Custom Aggregate Functions will be available in any formula editor in which the existing built-in aggregate functions are also available.
