Comments

The Narrative Key determines if the dimension is part of the key for the comments (narratives) created by a user for this report. In case the Dimension is added in the Comment section, these means that the comments are specific for this dimension. If RollUp is checked, the hierarchy of this dimension will be used to create a dependency tree for comments. On the report you will see the comment for the current member of that dimension but you can also see (and even consolidate) the comments of the children of that member. Only one (hierarchical) dimension can (and should) have the RollUp selection.

Other Default Settings

Apart from the PoV settings and the initial values of dimensions, the user can also maintain the values of a number of common settings that could vary between Source Systems.
