You can view an dashboard if you have the proper permissions. By default, the repository includes the /Dashboards folder where you can save dashboards.
To view a dashboard:

Passwords are case-sensitive. You must use lowercase d when you type demo. |
| 2. | In the search field, enter supermart and click  . |

| 4. | When you mouseover each report, controls appear for that individual report. Click Refresh to refresh the report content, and click Open to open the report in a new window. |
| 5. | Select new values from the Start Month and End Month drop-downs and click Submit to change the data displayed. |
All three reports update to display data for the months you indicate.
| 6. | Click Reset to set the input controls to the last values saved and return the dashboard to its initial view. |
| 7. | When done, click View > Repository to go back to the repository page. |
Keep these points in mind when viewing a dashboard that has input controls:
• An input control may appear as a text field, a drop-down, a check box, a multi-select list box, or a calendar icon.
• If one of the frames in a dashboard does not refer to an input control, that frame does not update when you change that input control’s value. Only reports that refer to the input control reflect the change.

If a dashboard includes a Print View button, click it to display the dashboard without JasperReportsServer's header and footer; depending on your web browser, this also opens your browser's Print window. |
