Defining Default Behavior for View and Report Properties

Under the View and Reports sections, there is a field called Default Value where you can set default property values for Views and Reports.

For Views, a Power user can set the default values, such as Display Label or Code, Indent Row Members, Show Hidden Members, and Enable Save properties. Power users can also select the Data Locking property and Analyze - Tab Color.

For Reports, a Power user can set the default values, such as Display Label or Code, Hide Gridlines, and Hide Headers properties. Default Value for Save on Model and Calculation on Save properties are not applicable. Power users can also select the Data Locking property and Report - Tab Color.

In the example below, under View, Code is selected for Display Label. That means that for all new Views created from the date and time the setting was saved, all Views will display member Codes instead of Display Labels by default. And, under Reports, the Power user selected No for gridlines and headers, which means that any reports created from the date and time the setting was saved will not show gridlines and headers by default. Individual views and reports can vary from these defaults.

Note:

Selecting a default value is optional.
