RE: 1.What are differences between Reporter report and...

Explorer Report:

Explorer report shows one level of one dimension in each row and column. You can add more levels from the same dimensions or from different dimensions as nested categories.

Reporter Report:

A flexible report that enables you to

  • Add single categories from different levels of the same dimension
  • Add categories from different dimensions
  • Add nested categories from the same dimension, or from different dimensions

Rollup function.

A method used to summarize measure values up the category tree structure. You can select rollup function settings from the measure property sheet.

RE: 1.What are differences between Reporter report and...

Partition

In Transformer, a process that presummarizes portions of the cube data into nested sub-cubes called partitions, resulting in faster data access for report creation.

subset

A group of categories created to isolate information that shares some common criteria. Subsets are created by adding a subset definition to a report.

Drilling

Drilling down moves you down in the hierarchy; drilling up moves you up in the hierarchy.

An action that uses the current context of a report, to access information in another PowerPlay report, cube, Impromptu report, or macro.

Cubes with drill-through access are set up in Transformer and must match on some combination of dimensions, measures, and details, although not necessarily all of them.

Subdimention

A tree of categories with levels that are independent of levels in the dimension. A subdimension can provide different details, or different levels of detail, for categories in a level. A subdimension can support an alternate drill-down path.

Creating Cube Group

Steps

1. Click in the PowerCubes list to make it active and, from the Edit menu, click Insert PowerCube.

2. In the PowerCube Name box, type a name for the new PowerCube Group.

3. Click the Cube Group tab.

4. In the Dimension box, select the dimension that you want to build the PowerCube group from.

5. In the Level box, select the level whose categories will become the individual cubes in the PowerCube group.

6. In the Focus of Detail group, select the levels of detail as required.
