Precalculates data in views. By precalculating data, the load on the Metrics Management Server is lower, and users open objects such as books and views more quickly. Unless you have a good reason for not doing so, synchronize hierarchies before running a precalculation.
The server name. Use quotation marks if the value contains spaces.
Db_Reference
The database name or path exactly as it is known to the server. Use quotation marks if the value contains spaces.
Login_Name
Login name that has rights to access a Metrics Management database.
If the database is configured to use the BIRT360Plus authentication method, prefix the login name with BIRT360Plus followed by a backslash, for example, BIRT360Plus\PCastillo.
If the database is configured to use an optional authentication method such as AD or LDAP, you can prefix the login name with the authentication method followed by a backslash, for example, LDAP\Joe.
If your authentication method does not require a Metrics Management login name, for example, AD-SSO, LDAP-SSO, or Windows, use any string as the login name. For example, you can use NONE.
Login_Password
User login password. For authentication methods that do not require a user password such as AD-SSO, LDAP‑SSO, or Windows, use any string for the password. For example, you can use NONE.
Views_Only
True or False. Specify True to calculate all named views, which are views that have not been customized. Specify False to also calculate all custom views associated with book sections, data exports, and maps. The default value is True.
Calc_Dashboards
True or False. Specify True to calculate values that appear in dashboard charts and tables. Specify False to exclude dashboard data from precalculation. The default value is False.
