Reporting Option on Dimension 3+

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 25

What options are available for doing reporting on dimensions beyond the two global dimensions? I don't see much available, unfortunately.

The following documentation mentions that we can setup as many dimensions and values as we want: https://madeira.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/finance-dimensions/ However, I don't see the ability to do reporting on much of anything other than the two global dimensions. In Dynamics NAV this is handled via Analysis Views, but these don't appear to be available in D365f.

Am I missing something?

    Thanks, Jennifer.

    I'm very glad to see Analysis Views now available. That will be very helpful.

    Hello Bradley,

    It looks like you are accessing the old Madeira documentation.  Here's the link to the Financials documentation which discusses Dimensions:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../finance-dimensions

    In this documentation we do state that you can use the Global Dimensions on filters for reports, but not the same functionality with additional Shortcut Dimensions.

    However, we had had numerous requests to be able to report on these additional Shortcut Dimensions. Analysis Views should now be available in the latest update, so you should be able to see results for additional dimensions there.  Development is continuing to work on improving the reporting functionality with these additional dimensions in future updates as well.

    You can search for System Information and if your version number is 17334 you should be able to use Analysis Views by Dimension.

    Regards,

    Jennifer Reinhardt
