Disable Selection-based Interactivity

You can disable selection-based interactivity for an HTML report that is viewed in IBM® Cognos® Viewer to shorten the time that it takes the report to run.

After you disable this functionality, you cannot:

drill up and down in a report
drill through to other reports
use IBM Cognos Search
use conditional report delivery
use agent notification

If selection-based interactivity is enabled in IBM Cognos Connection, a user can perform drill up and down and drill-through actions in Report Viewer or Query Studio. If selection-based interactivity is disabled in IBM Cognos Connection, the ability to perform drill up and down and drill-through are disabled regardless of how the drill through definitions and settings are authored in Report Studio and IBM Cognos Connection.

Selection-based interactivity is enabled by default.

Tip: You can instead enable or disable selection-based interactivity for the current run only.

Click Run with options next to the report and then click Advanced options. Click Enable selection-based interactivity in HTML reports.

Procedure

In IBM Cognos Connection, click the set properties button on the actions toolbar to the right of the report.
Click the Report tab for a Report Studio report, the Query tab for a Query Studio report, or the Analysis tab for an Analysis Studio report.
Tip: Disabling selection-based interactivity on an Analysis Studio report has no effect.
Click Advanced options.
Clear the Enable selection-based interactivity in HTML reports check box.

Results

Note that disabling selection-based interactivity on an Analysis Studio report has not effect.
