Using Management Reporter with a lot of dimension created in Analytical Accounting

Posted on by 45

Hello Group, I have a question. When I create a report in Management Reporter using Analytical Accounting with a lot of Dimension and I want to add another dimension, how can I add this dimension without creating another report in Management Reporter. Is it possible?

    RE: Using Management Reporter with a lot of dimension created in Analytical Accounting

    Usually a report in MR is created by using Row and Column definitions... when sharing the definitions across multiple reports, you run the risk into changing the outcome of the other reports if you do any changes to a row or column defs...

    Sometimes it's safer to just make a copy of the row/column def you want to modify and test the impact on a new report version.

    The trick with MR is the fact that once row & column definitions are assigned to various reports, it gets very difficult to remove them, as the system will constantly claim that those definitions are used by one or more reports..

    The next local GPUG Chapter meeting in on Wednesday Nov. 18th AM @ the Microsoft Offices downtown.

    Hi Béat.

    Can you tell me what is the impact of the first report created. Does it makes a différence.

    When is the GPUG in November.

    Thanks in advance.

    Bonjour Benoit,

    How did you originally create the first report ? We're not using AA yet.. but might be starting next year with it..

    PS: would you be interested attending the local  GPUG Chapter in Montreal in November ?
