Menu links panel

Navigation to the different areas of Analytics is carried out from the menu links at the top of the screen. The current area of functionality selected is shown by an underline with different colour.

Note: The features concerning the saving, loading, scheduling and commentary of reports are only available to users with the relevant permissions.

 

Menu links

The following links are available:

Left side

  • Crosstab: Cross compare values within an index.
  • Pages: Create highly visual and customisable reports using drag and drop functionality
  • Query: Make and ad hoc search through the raw data in the index.
  • Venn: Build complex search terms by dragging-and-dropping visual representations, known as ‘sets’, of entries in the Analytics indexes and of your saved searches around the Venn interface. By positioning the sets so that they overlay, you can build search terms and visualise relationships within the data.
  • Data Source: Allows you to upload and configure your own Data Sources from CSV and Excel files.
  • Load: Access and manage saved reports and queries to which you have the appropriate access rights.

  • Help: Access the user guide, the admin guide (if you have administrator privileges) and a link to contact Connexica Ltd via the Connexica Ltd help desk.
