Sheets and Sharing Workspaces in SAP BO Analysis

In a workspace, there can be multiple sheets. Sheets are used to group the data in a workspace. In a new Analysis, three sheets are included and you can add/remove sheets to suit the analysis.

In a workspace, each sheet has its own set of analyses and components, which are not shared and which cannot be linked across sheets. Analyses and components on one sheet can therefore have the same names as analyses and components on other sheets.

How to Add a Sheet?

In a workspace, you can add as many sheets as you want and delete as many sheets as you want. It should have at least one sheet in analysis.

To add a sheet, right-click on a sheet tab.
