Provide 'select all' feature in Workbook table and pivot table visualizations

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

Oracle HSGBU

Description (Required):

Currently on OAS v64 we do not find a feature 'select all' when visualizing in the workbook a table or pivot table. This feature would be very useful when using a Data Action to jump to a BIP publisher or Analysis report passing values from the visualization e.g. key values we then use to have the BIP publisher report or Analysis report extract the same data from the workbook dataset. Currently we have to ask our users to use the Shift key and select the first and last row of the view. When having a table of many pages this is a bit cumbersome. Select All would be much easier.

Use Case and Business Need (Required):

Current workbook DV is limited in its capability to export/print to PDF and XLS : it does not export/print easily all data in the table or pivot table / it is a bit limited in formatting.

Therefore we use the Data Action to go to publisher or analysis report where the two limitations mentioned above are not present.

The 'Select All' feature would make the Data Action less cumbersome to use for our users.

Hi @Philippe ROGIERS-Oracle , if I understand correctly your Idea, you want to have data from table/pivot table viz in DV exported (into PDF/PPT) completely, not just the "visible" part in the UI - is that correct ? For this Idea has been created quite long time ago - more than year (https://community.oracle.com/customerconnect/discussion/592762/print-entire-table-in-dv#latest) and so far without any attention from Product Mgmt. So you can vote for this Idea as well. I am not sure (since we are using OAS not OAC), how new exporting capability to Excel looks like, whether it imports all data from table/pivot table. I would expect such behaviour.

Hi Michal : thanks very much for your feedback. I did provide a comment for the initial idea you refer to which covers our requirement.
