Advanced expandable pivot table empower your viewers with advanced Self Service

An advanced pivot table with self service capabilities and a wide range of powerful features for your viewers

Viewers can easily change the pivot structure by moving dimensions or measures around by drag and drop to achieve new custom views which will be retained for their user login.
It also highly enhances your end user experience by enabling them to drill down by expanding rows and columns, to see the breakdown of that selection, while not losing the parent values. In addition, this plugin provides your users with a unique dimension picker, which they can use to determine which dimensions to include or not, for their own specific analysis.

    When the field dragging option is enabled, any user can change the pivot structure by dragging and dropping the fields, either on the pivot area or from within the field chooser.
    The State Persistence feature will store and save each users’ preferred state and load it to that user when logged in. However the user left the pivot structure, that is how they will receive it back when they log back in or refresh the page until the owner of the dashboard will republish, this will override the viewer’s preferred state. When this feature is turned off, the user will still be able to drag and drop and change the structure of the pivot, but their preferred state will not persist and will return back to the original published state upon any page refresh.
    The Published Changes feature adds a button to the pivot which enables the view to restore the changes to the owner’s original publish state.
