The Create Shortcut dialog box opens.
The Shortcut Target dialog box opens.
The Title field is automatically populated with the name of the original item and the word Shortcut.
A confirmation message indicates that your shortcut is created successfully.
The Open dialog box opens.
The shortcut to the Master File appears in your selected directory in the Resources tree. You can use this shortcut to create reports and visualizations. You can also publish or share the shortcut to make it available to other users.
