Automatic Data Refresh functionality is available for release to your Production environment if you opt in. Contact the Support team to enable this feature in Production.

The Automatic Data Refresh functionality for Dynamic Reports updates data whenever data is modified in templates. This avoids manual processing of data. The functionality is applicable only for Financial cube.

The modified Run icon is displayed whenever the data being displayed in the report is not up to date. A call-out displays the time at which the data was updated. Once you click the Run icon, the report is updated with the latest data.
