Hello,
I have created an income statement through the management reporter that I would now like to apply in a way that would show information for all cost centres.
Is there an easy way to utilize a financial report (income statement) that already exists with the correct structure and sort of add an "extra layer" of cost centres, preferably in a dynamic way so that it could be used in different companies with different profit centres?
Kindly,
O
Hello Oskar,
There are two 'easy' ways to achieve that.
First, you can open your column definition and add additional columns for each of your cost centers. That is, you basically 'copy' the columns that you have and for each of your cost center you apply a dimension filter. This works nicely if you have a limited number of cost centers (<20). Otherwise the report is getting very wide.
Second, you can make use of a reporting tree. What you need to do here is simply setting up a reporting tree that includes all of your cost centers. Once that is done you can then attach it to your report definition and run the report. As a result, you will get your 'ordinary' income statement report but you will be able to slice it by the different cost centers that you have.
Best regards,
Ludwig
