Links between dashboard pages in OAC break when the dashboard is exported to Excel.

Question

Is it possible to retain the links between dashboard pages (OAC/OBIEE) in the exported Excel file, where each tab corresponds to a page in the dashboard when exporting the entire dashboard to Excel?  The requirement is to achieve functionality similar to a Narrative Reporting (EPM) package export.

Thanks for the reply. I can see this, but when I have links defined between reports—such as drilling down from an aggregate value to its detailed level (e.g., drilling down from the Cash figure in the Balance Sheet to its account-level breakage)—those links are not retained across the Excel tabs. I’m looking for something similar to the EPM Narrative Reporting book/package output, where inter-report links are preserved after export.

Hi

When you go to Dashboard → Export to Excel → select Export Entire Dashboard option, the dashboard pages get exported as separate sheet in the exported excel file.

Are you not seeing this?

Thanks
