Data table referencing when combining windows

Answer_Seeker

Hi, I am using the JMP ver 18.2

I have an issue when trying to combine windows into a dashboard.

For example, when I tried to combine the following 2 reports,

Instead of having the 2 reports showing up as a dashboard, what I get was a new data table and a dashboard with empty frames.

I think this is caused by the table referencing issue.

Is there a preference or method to combine windows without creating a new data table, and the original data table as reference?

@Answer_Seeker - JMP is indeed using the Source script in the data table to recreate the table each time the dashboard is run. JMP Applications/Dashboards have several options for how to access the data, with the intention that the script may need to be run repeatedly on either the same time or a different table.

If you use the red-triangle menu to Edit Application, and then Show Properties in the Dashboard Builder, you should see the data table settings on the property panel to the right:

Embedded Script is the default if (1) the table has a script that we can use (2) the table is not saved to a file. If the table is saved to a file, you should see a popup similar to this when you combine the windows:

This will change to using the Full Path option, which will ensure that it runs with the table that was resaved in JMP form. For any of the other options, you would have to use Edit Dashboard to change the setting and then resave the Dashboard. You can use the Current Data Table option if you always want to run against the current table. You could then save the script to an Add-In or other JSL container to recreate the dashboard for another table.

Did you get this immediately after you combined the windows or after saving and loading? Is your data table saved? Have you taken a look at the script which is behind the dashboard? It does at least seem that your table name is different and based on those images it is impossible to say if you have similarly named columns in both tables/reports

X, Y and Wafer ID possibly as columns?

No Wafer Id, X or Y visible here

Would you be able to provide the (perhaps anonymized) JMP data table(s) and reports that generate this error?

Hi jthi,

Thanks for replying.

Yes, I get an empty dashboard immediately after clicking the "OK" button of the combine window dialog. (And also a new data table is created as if the green triangle of "Source" is pressed )

Anyway, the original data table was not saved when execute the window combination.

The X ,Y and the Wafer ID columns are some derivative columns, which seem they are not copied to the new data table.

The following is the script I copied from the dashboard window.
