Understanding Dynamic Reports

Dynamic Reports is a reporting tool that provides easy-to-use, ad hoc query capabilities and structured financial reports that utilize reusable report sets. Dynamic Reports use Report Sets and dimension data to produce a specific output.

Dynamic Reports have three components: page, row, and column. Dimensions, attributes, and report sets are defined for components by dragging and dropping them directly onto the component.

A Dynamic Report consists of a report grid. For example, an income statement report might be shown on the column axis and income statement accounts along the rows axis. At the intersection of each member along each axis, a cell displays the measure data for the selection of company and department.

One or more Dynamic Reports can be mapped to a single or multiple Planning Templates. Admin can map the Dynamic Reports on the Template Setup page. The mapped reports are run from the Planning Control Panel and displayed on the Planning Template Input and/or View page.
