Ability to Copy Single Cell Value

Organization Name (Required - If you are an Oracle Partner, please provide the organization you are logging the idea on behalf of): Dropbox Inc

Description (Required): Users need the ability to copy a single cell value from the report viz., formats

Use Case and Business Need (Required): We currently don’t have an option to select a single cell value in a report format(Table/Pivot viz). As we need to query the transactions in ERP front end, this feature will really help us to copy/paste the data directly in the Oracle and save some time.

This is the number 1 complaint about OAC DV from my users. It's brought up daily.

Thanks for the comment. Wonder why this is not getting more votes if it is a common ask! Anyway, taking a look at what we can do and still have existing features like brushing and Keep Selected work correctly.

Another vote.

users expect to be able to copy the value to clipboard.

Suggestion: It could be implemented as

Right-click - Copy

Upvoted, it is desired feature.

I can't upvote anymore, but this would make such a huge difference for usability and matches the user's expectation of an option when highlighting data in most other online contexts.

@Bret Grinslade - Oracle Analytics-Oracle ,

Hello, any feedback on this? thanks.

As an alternative to this, there are two other enhancements that would make this better.

You should build in single cell "keep selected" so you can put that one value up in the filters banner with a quick click. Also if that field is already in the banner, it should just update that one filter instead of adding a new one.
Integrate with your ERP systems with drill through capabilities. Allow us to get down to an order or invoice level and then be able to click on that order or invoice and have it open up directly to that form in the ERP system. Then my users don't have a need to export or copy/paste anymore.

This is the number one complaint about DV from users of the tools I have created, I am losing users to other tools because this feature is not available. I agree with Branden Pavol that the following additions would also be immensely impactful:

+ 1 vote. This functionality has recently been brought up by our users as well. Instead of copying the entire row, they want to be able to copy data from a single cell.
