Nooxl Model and Dataset selection

Select Nooxl Model​

In the model spreadsheet area, you will see a tree structure of the available (and authorized) models. You can filter the view by entering text in 1. With 2 [+] or [-] you can expand or collapse all subfolders of the tree structure.

Clicking on a model name 3 opens a list of the model's datasets already saved in the workspace. Clicking on More 4 takes you to the extended data set selection for the model.

Depending on the settings of the Nooxl installation, the buttons to the right of the model name 4 may be labeled as List. In this case, you must click on the model name 3 to go to the dataset selection and on List 4 to display the saved datasets in the workspace.

5 is an example of a folder in the tree structure with sub-items.

Select Nooxl Dataset​

In a Nooxl model, a spreadsheet only serves as a template (formulas, design) without data that is filled with data for a calculation or display. Any number of data records can be stored in the database for a model in Nooxl Apps. A Nooxl dataset is selected in the dataset selection via one or more selectors 1. Each selector contains a list of labels that can be extended as required. If an extension or renaming by the user is planned, a menu icon 2 appears behind the selector.

The data set is only selected and the View button is activated once all selectors have been filled in. (There are also optional selectors that do not have to be filled in). When you click 3 on the View button, Nooxl Apps loads the selected data set into the model and displays the result in the workspace. Alternatively, the list of data records saved in the model can be called up via 4 . You can copy data between data sets, perform mass recalculations of data sets or download mass exports of models with data (PDF, XLSX, ZIP) via 5 the menu Actions.

After clicking the View button, the left-hand navigation closes to enlarge the workspace. The workspace and the template are loaded with the data of the selected data set. You can open the navigation pane again at any time by clicking on in the 1 workspace.
