For more information go to Mobile app access

SQL Repository

From Version 8, Web Edition can store its repository of published files in a database rather than on the server's file system. This method allows for finer grain control of various aspects of repository access, as well as a richer interface:

  • new Excel-based dialogs for controlling permissions and access to reports and folders
  • full version history of published items, as well as locking the live version
  • logging of report accesses, including rendering times for usage and performance monitoring
  • Operational reporting - report usage, user activity etc.

For more information go to SQL Repository

Cube Comments

Cube text commentary was introduced in Version 8.1. It allows users to enter text commentary against data slices. It relies on Web Edition running under the SQL Repository.
