Can you be a little more specific about the type / placement of the description? Maybe a sample screen mockup of what your ideal
solution would look like?

He would like to place the description within above or below each report. Like what the report is showing, what the field names mean.

See screenshot. First, I changed the Canvas Properties to Freeform so I could re-size and move the visualizations. Then I went to the visualization panel on the left and brought in a text box (twice). Moved them where I wanted to and then added the text with formatting.

I had no idea I could do that!! You rock!
BTW is there any user friendly documentation for this tool?

Well, the starting point is the Academy link in DV. That will take you to the tutorials and documentation. There are also a lot of videos on the Oracle Analytics Youtube channel. But as someone who "grew up" on hardcopy, well-written documentation, I don't think the OAC documentation provides enough detail or enough examples or enough screenshots or enough step-by-step tutorials or enough.. well, you get the point. :-)
