Mobile reports on Oracle BI EE 12c - one, two, three. Methodology from Oracle BI EE 12c CAD Course

Many companies that use Oracle BI 12c have a common problem: their developers, for various reasons, do not want to get involved with mobile reporting.

In our BI courses, this issue was covered in a full version in the new version, so we are putting out a practically ready recipe for how to transfer a set of existing reports to a mobile application in a few hours.

About this - a few words and a lot of pictures.

We do not repeat the general point associated with the need to install a mobile client from the App Store or Google Play , as we consider this a natural step. Each of these applications has its own history and support group, on the pages of stores there are reviews and ratings. Both the App Store and Google Play have customers for other Oracle products.
