pentaho BTable -- A new horizon of OLAP data representation

BTable is a component for the Pentaho Community Dashboard Designer (CDE) that extends the standard Table Component with OLAP functionalities and provides a new drill experience.
Dashboard users can easily interact with the table through a context menu that allows to:
  • add, change or remove dimensions
  • add, change or remove measures
  • create crosstables
  • display grand totals and subtotals
  • sort by dimensions or measures
  • add additional filters to the table
  • unlink the table from the dashboard context to stop listening to external parameters
  • drill a cell or drill a row
  • swap axis
  • export data and also formatting to Excel
Dashboard designers can build flexible and rich tables with little effort, indicating a Mondrian schema and a
JNDI connection and writing the initial query in a more friendly manner.
