    •  Conditional Formatting
    •  Exception Based Formatting
    •  Report and Chart Styles
    •  Report Widths (best fit, percentage and pixel)
  • Record Commands for supported object types

    •  Change column visibility at runtime
    •  Column visibility configured in report  
  • Slicing
  • Sorting
    •  Change Sorting at runtime
    •  Sorting configured in report 

NOTE: The Agent Browser User Interface uses a different User Interface component (OJET) compared to .NET; hence, the styling and appearance of reports are expected to be slightly different.

Within the Browser UI, the majority of Analytics functionality is supported at runtime. This means that the supported versions noted below for individual functionality will render correctly when a user runs reports containing these functionalities.  However, reports must be configured in the Service Console using the native report designer as there is not yet a report designer in Browser UI.

There are a few runtime options available such as hiding/showing columns, reordering columns and individual/multi-column sorting. The following section will assist with understanding what is and what is not supported from the specified release onward.
