Microstrategy Dossiers explained

Microstrategy  Dossiers 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 can be created by using the new Desktop product or Workstation or simply from the Web interface which replaces Visual Insights.

Update the data on an Intelligent Cube without having to republish the entire cube in MicroStrategy

Update the data on an Intelligent Cube without having to republish the entire cube in MicroStrategy MicroStrategy has introduced a feature known as, Incremental Refresh Options, which allow Intelligent Cubes to be updated based on one or more attributes, by setting up incremental refresh settings to update the Intelligent Cube with only new data. This can reduce the time and system resources necessary to update the Intelligent Cube periodically versus a full republish. For example, if a user has an Intelligent Cube that contains weekly sales data, the user may want this Intelligent Cube to be updated at the end of every week with the sales data for that week. By setting up incremental refresh settings, he can make it so that only data for one week is added to the Intelligent Cube, without affecting the existing data and without having to reload all existing data. Users can select t...

MicroStrategy default sort order for an attribute elements browsing

MicroStrategy default sort order for an attribute elements browsing and display How does MicroStrategy 9.x resolve the default sort order for an attribute when different sort orders are defined for different forms? Consider the following cases: CASE 1 A new attribute is created with three forms, all with sort order set to none. Form Name Form Type Default Sort Order ID ID None DESC DESC None LongDesc None None The overall sort order is evaluated and stored in the attribute definition when the attribute is saved. With all form sort orders set to none there is no saved sort order, MicroStrategy defaults to sort ascending by ID. CASE 2 The same attribute is modified so the forms are now: Form Name Form Type Default Sort Order ID ID None DESC DESC Descending LongDesc None Ascending Now when the attribute is saved, MicroStrategy goes through each form in the order they appear in the main 'Forms' window of the attribute editor.

HyperIntelligence and its Architecture

HyperIntelligence and its Architecture When you open a web page the extension automatically scans web pages in your browser and underlines keywords that you can hover over to trigger cards. Cards present predefined KPIs associated with a selected keyword sourced securely from MicroStrategy. This feature is similar to what we see in web pages particularly stock related web sites.  MicroStrategy introduced HyperCards, a new object that is built, managed, and deployed using MicroStrategy Workstation(Not by using Developer or Desktop as far as I know). Cards can be consumed in a web browser via the MicroStrategy HyperIntelligence Chrome extension and on iOS devices via the MicroStrategy HyperMobile app. This feature can help the users to inject Zero-Click Intelligence (as it requires the users to hover only and no need to click!) about customers, products, people, and more directly onto words within websites or web application or emails.
