Visual Insights dashboards in Microstrategy 11?

Dossiers are essentially the next generation of VI dashboards. Once you upgrade your existing environment to the latest version, all of your VI dashboards will be converted to Dossiers. Dossiers have additionally functionality and enhancements (collaboration, responsive design, enhanced user experience, filtering, etc.) Once you have Library installed, you can then push out these Dossiers to your users Library via Workstation, MSTR Web, email, link shares, or your users can add Dossiers to their Library on their own.

With the release of MicroStrategy 10.9, we’ve taken a leap forward in our dashboarding capabilities by simplifying the user experience, adding storytelling, and collaboration.MSTR has evolved dashboards to the point that they are more than dashboards - they are interactive, collaborative analytic stories. Ultimately, it was time to go beyond dashboards, both in concept and in name, and so the've renamed VI dashboards to ‘dossiers’.

Dossiers are organized in pages and chapters, that make it easy to navigate and share the reports and visualizations you're familiar with. And with live collaboration, commenting, and notifications, your team can stay in sync and be ready to take informed action when it counts.

dossier

Key features of the dossiers, that available for both web and mobile users are:

A more modern interface with intuitive menu options for both analysts and consumers
Powerful filtering options, with new visual filters
Proactive alerts and push notifications for both web and mobile users
Collaborative discussion threads for real-time and contextual idea exchange

With this release, MicroStrategy modernizes the interface by focusing on making the product easier-to-use and more intuitive. Organizations can now deploy MicroStrategy to a wider set of users across the enterprise, and get it into the hands of everyone – regardless of skillset, and for the first time, delivers the means to accelerate the adoption of analytics across the enterprise at a much faster rate.

Scheduling a report or document to be sent to an FTP in MSTR

Scheduling a report or document to be sent to an FTP server You can have a report or document automatically delivered to a location on your FTP server on a specific schedule. To do so, you must subscribe to the report or document, as described in the steps below. You can customize your subscription by typing macros in the File Name , Sub-folder , or Zip File Name fields. These macros are automatically replaced with the appropriate text when the report or document is delivered. For example, you create a subscription to a document. If you type {&Project} in the File Name field, the name of the project in which the document is saved is displayed in the name of the document when it is delivered. • This procedure assumes that an administrator has already added your FTP server as a new device in Developer. Steps to do so are included in the System Administrator Help . To send a report or document to an FTP server on a schedule ...

Microstrategy Custom group and consolidation comparison

Custom group and consolidation comparison Both consolidations and custom groups provide flexibility in reports, but the objects differ in their structure and use. The essential distinction is that consolidations work with attributes and custom groups use filters. Consolidations are groupings of attribute elements while custom groups are based on filter criteria. Custom groups are used to apply different filters to different rows of a report. Consolidations are used to create virtual attributes to allow reporting on attributes that do not exist in the data model. Finally, row level math can be performed with consolidations but not with custom groups. Custom groups are more flexible than consolidations because you do not have to know much about your data to create filters for a custom group. In contrast, consolidations require that you know exactly which attribute elements to select when creating the consolidation. To continue with the examples from the previous sect...
