I am looking into a question I was asked by my PM regarding the objects in our dashboards.  Management wants to be able to make the objects dynamic in regards to new data being imported in to the model.

 

For example.  Say that the Excel data is hosted on a dataserver.  That server gets new data which updates into the Excel model overnight.  When a user accesses the application and runs the dashboard, the dashboard will reflect the new data, without that user having to enter it manually into Excel.  In other words, the data is dynamic.

 

Is there a line of code, or some sort of parameter set that I need to access inside of Crystal Dashboards, in order to make this function accordingly? 

 

I am sorry this sounds vague, but I am not coming at this from a technical background, and I am really hitting roadblocks trying to get this to work.

 

Thanks!
