Report definition

  • Cikk

A report definition is a report component, also called a building block, which uses a row definition, a column definition, and an optional reporting tree definition to create a report. In addition, the report definition provides additional options and settings for customizing a report.

This topic contains the following sections:

  • Create a report definition

  • Contents of a report definition

Create a report definition

After you define row and column definitions, you must combine them in a report definition. At this point, you will also define additional aspects of the definitions, such as the detail level and report date, and then you can save and generate a report.

Management Reporter offers the following levels of detail reporting:

  • Financial

  • Financial & Account

  • Financial, Account & Transaction

However, depending on how data is stored in the Microsoft Dynamics ERP system, transaction details might not be available in reports.
