First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer readable medium comprising computer readable instructions, which, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform a method, the method comprising:
- recording an analysis step from an OLAP analysis that changes a corresponding query to a multi-dimensional data source, wherein the query is associated with a first part of an analysis step record for the analysis step;
recording a result set corresponding to the query, wherein the result set is associated with a second part of the analysis step record; and
transferring the analysis step record into a data visualization tool.

Abstract
Described herein are methods and systems for capturing OLAP analysis thread and transferring the data into a data visualization tool. According to one aspect, OLAP analysis step queries and the corresponding results are recorded and transferred to a data visualization tool. In another aspect, the data in the data visualization tool may be refreshed without affecting the data format.
