BI Tool Components

Dashboard/Edit Reports > Properties > Data Source tab > Components

Essentially a component is a section, which is outlined in red, on the BI Tool Dashboard/Report Edit screen that has one of the “Component Groups” (see table below) applied to that section. The Component Groups can be applied to the “red outlined section” from the BI Tool Properties screen, or by using a Template. A template is just a component that has certain filters, settings, and color already applied to that component. See BI Tool Templates for more details.

When choosing an option under Components, the dropdown options include the following options:

Component Group	Options Available	Topic (includes image of Component Type)
