Storyboards allow you to present reports within a PowerPoint-like display, with full report functionality of returning the latest results, applying filters, and drill-down or drill-throughs.
Getting started
To create a storyboard, you must have Corporate Report Writer access. Go to Create > Storyboard.
Give your storyboard a name and subtitle - these will appear on your storyboard title page.
If you would like a branded theme for your storyboards, speak to your Client Success Manager.

Associated content
You can add additional slides beneath a slide if required - this is useful for additional, related reports or information that you can refer to, or for reports that are too big to display properly on a main slide.
