Share Selective Columns from your Tables
Zoho Reports now allows sharing selective columns from your data table to your users.
So far when you share a table all the columns will be shared to the user always. Now you can choose columns to be shared. This enables you to control what data your users get to see and create reports upon. This will particularly helpful in case you have sensitive data in your table.
Merging User Filters
The below animation shows merging User Filters.
Zoho Reports now allows you to merge multiple user filters (Text Column) into a single a filter. This is pretty useful in cases when you have a dashboard with reports created over similar columns from different tables.
So far, the Dashboard User Filters are bound to a specific column in a table and will only filter the reports based on them.
Now, this can be overridden. You can map similar columns into a single User Filter to filter all reports using the Merge User Filter option. This avoids the tedious process of adding multiple User Filter and filtering the dashboard back and forth.
Only user filters which are based on Text column type (categorical columns) can be merged.
Configure Lookup Path
Zoho Reports now allows you to customize the join path to be used for a report.
You might have joined multiple tables using various Lookup columns in your Workspace. When creating reports, Zoho Reports will use the appropriate Lookup columns (Lookup path) created between them and generate the report using the auto join capability.
However, in some cases this might not suit your specific need. To address this, Zoho Reports allows you to choose the appropriate Lookup path between tables to be used for report creation using the Configure Lookup Path option.
