Use this feature in instances in which you want to prevent users from viewing an unfinished report in the Pentaho User Console, but want to ensure that the report publishes successfully. You can also use this feature to make the report exclusively accessible from another report through linking.
You must have a report file open in order to proceed.
Perform the following steps to hide a report:
- Go to the Structure pane and select Master Report.
- Under Attributes, scroll down to the visible attribute.
- Right-click the visible attribute and choose False.
- Save and publish your report.
The report, even though published successfully, does not display in the Pentaho User Console. You can edit the report, as needed, in Report Designer.
