Import your Database

Go to the Import Database Panel

The Name of the Metabase will be the name of your Metabase Collection

The importation of your database can take a while.

Generate Metabase

Go to the Generate Metatable panel

You will have to click the check button first. If your datatable installation is complete, you will be able to generate default metabase cards and Dashboard

It will be split in two collections :

MainStatistic

• for last 30days Turnover, annual Turnover and Best Seller

SecondStatistic

• for Sales and Turnover by products, brands and categories products

note: all names can be changed in Metabase translation.

Update Syncing

Go to the Update Metabase Syncing Panel

By default, Metabase does a lightweight hourly sync and an intensive daily scan of field values. If you have a large database, you should modify syncing options.

Database syncing

This is a lightweight process that checks for updates to this database’s schema. In most cases, you should be fine leaving this set to sync hourly.

Scanning for Filter Values

Metabase can scan the values present in each field in this database to enable checkbox filters in dashboards and questions. This can be a somewhat resource-intensive process, particularly if you have a huge database.

Periodically re fingerprint tables

This enables Metabase to scan for additional field values during syncs allowing smarter behavior, like improved auto-binning on your bar charts.

Syncing option :

1. Full Syncing: Activate Syncing and Scan
2. On Demand: Activate Syncing and Scan on the new Filter Value
3. Syncing Only: Scan is not activated
