SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise InfoView User's Guide

To set general preferences

  1. Log on to InfoView.
  2. On the InfoView toolbar, click Preferences.
    The "Preferences" page appears.
  3. In the "InfoView Start Page" area, select the option that you want to set as your initial view.
    For example, if you choose Favorites, then the Favorites folder is automatically selected in the Document List the next time you log on.

    Tip: You can also customize an InfoView page layout to be your start page, or use a dashboard. For details, see Using My InfoView and Overview.
  4. In the "Document Navigation View" area, select Folder or Category.
    The option that you choose determines whether the Tree panel displays the objects in InfoView by the folders in which they are located or the categories to which they are assigned.
  5. In the "Set the number of objects (max.) per page" area, specify the maximum number of objects that you want to see displayed per page when you view lists of objects.
  6. In the "Document List Display" area, select the summary information that you want to see in the Details panel for each object:
    • Description
    • Owner
    • Date
    • Instance Count
  7. In the "Document Viewing" area, select how you want to view your documents.
  8. In the "Product Locale" area, select your current language.
    This setting determines the language set that is used by InfoView.
  9. In the "Current Time Zone" area, select the appropriate time zone.

    Note: It is important that you check this setting before you schedule any objects to run. The default time zone is local to the web server that is running BusinessObjects Enterprise, not the Central Management Server (CMS) machine(s) to which each user connects. By properly setting your time zone, you ensure that your scheduled objects are processed in accordance with the time zone in which you are working.
  10. In the "Preferred Viewing Locale" area, select the locale that uses the formatting conventions for dates, numbers, and time that you would like to use while viewing objects.
  11. Click OK.
