Introduction to OBIEE: Learning to Access, Navigate, and Find Data in the SWIFT Data WarehouseLesson 8: Printing and Exporting an OBIEE Analysis
This course, Introduction to OBIEE, provides a high-level overview of the basic elements and navigation in OBIEE, the SWIFT Data Warehouse query and reporting tool.
OBIEE (Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition) provides State of Minnesota agencies the ability to retrieve and present financial and human resources data from the SWIFT Data Warehouse in a variety of formats including queries, reports and dashboards. OBIEE delivers a user-friendly business intelligence platform that makes it simple to access data, whether the user is running pre-built queries and reports or creating them from the ground up.
This course is recorded as a PowerPoint presentation, allowing you to review it at your own pace. Click your mouse or use your keyboard arrow keys to advance slides. Red boxes shown in demonstrations are intended to simulate mouse clicks in OBIEE.
NOTE: Many of the screenshots in this course were recorded in a demonstration environment. Data displayed in the examples provided does not reflect actual State of Minnesota data.

Lesson 8: Printing and Exporting an OBIEE Analysis
OBIEE provides several simple options for printing and exporting an analysis. The ability to export an analysis to another application such as Microsoft Excel provides flexibility for working with the data that you retrieve from the SWIFT Data Warehouse.
We’ll start the lesson by browsing the OBIEE Catalog to find and open an analysis.
The lesson will introduce:
•The various options and instructions for printing an analysis, either electronically or on paper
•The various options and instructions for exporting an analysis
Note: Data presented in this demonstration does not reflect actual state of Minnesota data.

Let’s start by finding an analysis.
As we’ve seen, there are several methods for finding an analysis.
This time, let’s browse the Catalog to find an analysis within My Folders called Rev by Region.
