Mobile Favorites are reports, graphs, hyperlinks, and any other item type, except Reporting Objects, that are added to the Mobile tab in the Favorites list in Dashboard. Adding items to Mobile Favorites enables you to display the items on mobile devices. Items can be added to Mobile Favorites from a Domain Tree, Role Tree, List block, Folder block, Tree block, or Domains search result. To add items to your Mobile Favorites list, right-click the item and select Add to Mobile Favorites. All items that are listed in the Mobile tab of your Favorites list will be displayed on the Mobile Favorites launch page when you log in from a mobile device. Note that you can only view Mobile Favorites for the Managed Reporting user ID and password you use to log in.
The following image shows the Favorites dialog box displaying a sample list of saved report items in the Mobile tab.
Report items stored in the Mobile tab of the Favorites list are sorted alphabetically by title. All of the options that are normally available for an item are available from the Mobile Favorites list including Run, Run Deferred, and Schedule.
If you want to remove an item in your Mobile Favorites list, select the check box next to the item and click Remove. You can remove all items by clicking Select All and then clicking Remove.
To send an e-mail containing the URL to your Mobile Favorites list so the items in the list can be viewed in a mobile device, click the Send Email button. For more information, see How to E-mail Mobile Favorites.
You can refresh the list of report items by clicking Refresh, and close the Favorites dialog box by clicking Close.
You can access your Mobile Favorites by typing the URL in the browser of a mobile device, or by sending an e-mail from Dashboard that contains the URL to your Mobile Favorites list and then opening that e-mail using a mobile device.
