Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

When developing an income statement in management reporter, what is the best practice for producing reports by service line, which is a subset of company? Develop a tree which breaks out the reporting structure and adding it to the report definition, or writing a separate report definition for each service line and defining the service line by account in the link to financial dimensions column in the row definition?

Hi Walnut,

I am not aware of a best practice guide.

A lot of "good practice" examples can be found on the MS Management Reporter blog.

blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dynamics_financial_reporting

Probably also check out this blog for additional information and examples.

Best regards,

Thank You. That makes good sense. Is there a best practice for this type of thing?

Hi Walnut,

I would not write separate report definitions for each service line because if something changes you have to maintain a lot of reports.

Best regards,
