Setting up Undo and Redo

In ad hoc analysis with Essbase Undo undoes Zoom In, Zoom Out, Keep Only, Remove Only, or Refresh and restores the previous database view to the grid. 1. From the Smart View ribbon, select Options, then select Advanced in the left panel. 2. In Number of Undo Actions, specify the number of permissible Undo operations - 0 through 100. This is also the number of Redo operations permitted. 3. Click OK. The setting takes effect after you refresh or perform a drill operation.
