Select Cross-Report Indexes

You can find and select an index or a multiple part index.

Note: After selecting an index, you can continue by selecting an index value. A list of report sections that each match the index-value pair you selected is displayed.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click Advanced Search after logging in to CA OM Web Viewer.
  2. (Optional) Select the CA View repository where you want to search for indexes.

    Note: If you have only one repository assigned to you, or if you have selected a default repository in your configuration, that repository will already be selected.

  3. Click Cross-Report Indexes tab.
  4. Specify the values in the Cross-Report Index Search Dialog.
    1. Date & Version Criteria

      The criteria in this section are the same as the Report List criteria for a CA View repository.

    2. Report Criteria

      The criteria are the same as the Report List criteria for a CA View repository.

    3. Index Criteria

      For more information about the Index Criteria, see the Page Selection and Report Sections section.

  5. Click Go.

    The following are the list of possible results:

    1. A table of labeled Index Name List is displayed.

      In this case, go to step 6.

    2. If only one index meets your criteria, you are automatically directed to the value selection pane.

      In this case, skip the remaining steps in this procedure, and continue with Cross-Report Index Selection.

    3. A message informing you that no indexes matching your criteria were found is displayed.

      Repeat steps 4 and 5, with different criteria.

  6. Find the column marked Index 1.

    This column has a link for each listed Index Name.

    Note: Multiple part indexes have links in the other columns; Index 2 – Index 8.

  7. (Optional) Use navigation arrows to list other indexes.
  8. Click the name of an index to select.

    The Index Value Selection pane is displayed.

    Note: With multiple part indexes, you can click on any links in the row. The resulting multiple part index is the same.

  9. Continue Select Index Value Selection.

To continue with step-by-step instructions, see the procedure in Index Selection.
