Client Source Substitution not working in 7.3

Karthik Kannan shared this problem 6 years ago
Defect Fixed

Hi Yellowfin Team,


Created a primary organisation and a client organisation and tried to do the Client Data Source Substitution, but options are not available in the primary organisation.


Steps followed:

1. Create a Data Source Connection at the Primary Org level

2. Connections to redirect to at the Client Org level

3. logged in to the Primary Organisation and edit the Data Source to apply substitutions.


But the options shown in http://wiki.yellowfin.com.au/display/USER63/Content+Management are not available.


Thanks in Advance,

Karthik K

Hi Karthik,


Thanks for your email and thanks for letting us know that the wiki is not upto date. I will advise the department to update the wiki article.

Can you please tell me which build are you working on?


I have attached a quick video along with this email for your reference on creating a source substitution.


Please let me know if you have any questions or if that is not clear.

Hi Mahe,


In the Video Client and Data Source is displayed but in our yellowfin only Inherit Access Filters from client source is displayed. If you need to check anything in my yellowfin configuration then i will be available for TeamViewer / Anydesk Sessions.


Thanks in Advance,

Hi Karthik,


Just wondering if you have followed the steps in the video.


If you create a data source in the client org and then login back to default org, then you will see an option to select the data source.


Please let me know if you have any difficulty.


I believe you will be alright.

Thanks for your reply.

We are creating reports for our multiple clients, so we found this Client Source Substitution is one of the best feature to achieve our task. This issue is a showstopper for us. please consider this issue as a high priority task.

Hi Karthik,

Thanks for your email.

"Inherit Access Filters from client source in Client Source Substitution"

The advantage is, if you have a Source Filter setup on the Data Source on default org, you don't need to create the same source filter again on each client org when you use client source substitution. It will reduce recreating same Access Filters for each client org for the same data source.

Please let me know if you have any more questions.
