You have the following setting options in the table settings of iba File Tables and General Tables.

Name

Name of the table

Table

Selection of the table to be used as the datasource

Note

ibaDaVIS, filters the tables displayed for selection. For the datasource type iba File Table, only tables that are recognized as file tables in iba format are available for selection. The default name of the file table is preset in ibaAnalyzer as "deFile" and can be changed for the user. If the name of the file table currently in use is not known, it can be read in the analysis rule that is used for database extraction. In the ibaAnalyzer area Database link, the names of the tables can be changed and read in iba format. Further information on this can be found in the ibaAnalyzer documentation. For the General Table datasource type, all available tables and database views that contain a date/time column can be selected from a list.

Timestamp column (general table only)

Column of the data type Date Time

The default is the column name "I_TIME". All database tables that contain a date/time column are permitted as a General Table. The currently available columns and a reduced data set are visualized as a preview.

Tapping on the   icon opens a drop-down menu for showing and hiding the table column.

If the table column is hidden in the table settings, it is also not selectable in the dashboard pane.
