<li>Click “Open BI View” to view the result</li>
<li>If module Dashboard (board) is installed, the standard “Add to My Dashboard” functionality would be available</li>
<li>Click “Create a menu” to create a new menu item directly linked to your new BI view (this feature is available in developer mode); when the BI view is reset back to draft this menu will be removed, and you will need to re-create the menu entry.</li>

<p>A more advanced UI is also available under the “Details” tab. It provides extra
possibilities for more advanced users, like to use LEFT JOIN instead of the
default INNER JOIN.</p>
