Creating Ad Hoc Views in MINT

What is an Ad Hoc View?

The Ad Hoc Editor allows the ad hoc exploration of data - typically the data from a Domain. It is meant for users who would like to explore data, as opposed to running a pre-defined report that allows for only little interactivity.

Create an Ad Hoc View

To create an ad hoc view:

1. In the top-level menu, choose Create → Ad Hoc View

   

2. In the Data Chooser window, click on Domains and navigate to the place in the repository where the domains are - then select the domain that the ad hoc view should be built on and click on Choose Data...

   File:MINT adhoc choose domain.png

3. In the next step, from all the attributes available from the chosen domains, select all those that should be included in the ad hoc view. Attributes can either be double-clicked or dragged and droppde to the right-hand pane named Selected Fields. Of course, if required, all available attributes can be selected.
