The status bar is meant to give the user different messages which may be relevant at the time of analyzing data.
The status bar is particular to each analysis window, in the same way as it happens with the Dimensions Bar. Consequently, when viewing more than one window at a time, the messages that should be given to the user are shown in each analysis pane.
The Status Bar is displayed in the bottom border of each window. It is divided in five sections, each one of them separated by a border.
- It shows the date and time the datamart was last updated
- It shows the active sorting criteria
- It shows the messages that should be given to users
The different types of messages that can be seen in this section are detailed below:- Security restrictions: restricted access to consult some levels of the dimensions of the datamart
- Scope restrictions: one or more measures are not defined in some levels of the dimensions of the datamart
- Data contain some non-numeric value. (NaN) and have been forced to zero
- Negative numbers forced to zero: Data contain some negative value and have been forced to zero
