Saved States Tab

The last tab is the Saved States tab. A Saved State is a point in time snapshot of a

QuickView or an OLAP cube or chart. The data is saved as a file that can be viewed at any

time. Saved States are configured via the scheduler by an Argos Administrator or a

DataBlock Designer. As a Report Writer you can allow or disallow the running of the

QuickView by checking or un-checking this box.

You can also manage the Saved States files by deleting any that you don’t want. The states

shown are stored on the MAP Server, however you can also copy a Saved State onto a PC

by clicking the ‘Save’ icon. You will then be able to supply the destination and file name of

the Saved State.

The Report Viewer can choose whether to execute a state stored on the MAP Server or one

stored on any PC. The Argos Report Viewers Guide provides an explanation of this.
