Change the source table

Tip

Change the interpretation's source results table to another version of the table if you run a particular analytic multiple times and you want to use the same saved interpretation with any of the versions of results table generated when the analytic was run.

1. From within an open interpretation, click Change Source Table .

   The Choose a Source Table page opens and lists all available results tables generated by the analytic. It displays the date and time the table was created, the user who ran the analytic, the size of the table, and number of records it contains. You can sort the list on any of the columns.

2. In the Choose a Source Table page, click Select to apply the source table to the interpretation.

Result The interpretation is updated using the data in the selected source table and you can save the changes you made.
