Introduction

The POV is available in every single report within the CXO-Cockpit. The POV in combination with the variables in the report determine the information you will see in a report. The number of dimensions in the POV is determined by the CXO-Cockpit Captain and can be changed in the CXO-Design Studio.

Change POV

You can easily change dimension members in the POV by clicking on them and choosing the member you want to see. You can for instance select a different period or entity within the POV of a report with just one mouse click. The report will built up the information based on that particular POV instantly.

Limitation

For performance and overview reasons dimensions in the POV Bar can be limited to certain number of levels

List In POV Bar

Normally the members available within the POV bar for any chosen dimension are only restricted either by member depth limit, or via a security filter. However it is also possible to restrict the available members by linking a list to the POV dimension in the /wiki/spaces/CXO/pages/2806776312.

For more detailed information on the usage of lists in the POV bar use the following link -  Lists in POV

POV Search

In order to find those members that are deep in a structure or not visible due to level limitation, there is a search button that helps you to find a member (eg. entity) quickly. The search works by finding the text entered anywhere in the member name or description the results show the values contained in the member description. See Screenshot.

Central vs. Initial and Hidden Dimensions

Each dimension can be initialized centrally or initially.

  • Centrally means that on opening the report takes over the previous report value for that specific dimension. Normally this is configured for dimensions like Entity, Year and Period.
  • Initially means that on opening the report the dimension is set to an initial value. This is normally done for all invisible dimensions. For example: A report is called "YTD Sales Overview", the view for this report is initially set to YTD and the View dimension is hidden in the POV Bar.
