Apply Zoom In

Explanation

This activity is used to enable zoom-in in a particular report. Every source connected to a particular set of information is made visible by the zoom-in functionality. The designer of the report has the flexibility of enabling the Zoom In feature to any measure item of a data source through IFS BI Services.

Prerequisites

In order to zoom-in information, the basic design should be created using an information source which is supported for zoom-in. Note that zoom-in will be possible only on measure items available on a report.

System Effects

Zoom-in would be possible when the report is executed in the end user mode.
