IBM Planning Analytics Tips & Tricks

IBM Planning Analytics Tips & Tricks: Creating Buttons in Planning Analytics Workspace (PAW)

 

Tips & Tricks

December 11, 2018

By Revelwood

This is a guest post from Revelwood’s Shane Bethea.

Did you know there’s an easy way to create buttons that allow your users to switch sheets in IBM Planning Analytics Workspace (PAW)? For example, you’ve created multiple sheets in a PAW book and want to give your users the ability to switch back and forth between the different sheets. One simple way to do this is to create buttons on each sheet that point to other sheets.

To do this, click on the ‘create new button’ option at the top of your PAW window. This creates a new button on the sheet.

You can then edit the Button target, which will take the user to a sheet in the same book, a different book, or a hyperlink, such as your company’s intranet or some other website.
