    Available Values

    Default

    Empty

    Empty tree members are not shown on the value tree.

    No, Yes

    No

    Visible

    By setting this attribute to no, the tree member will be hidden. Hiding a tree member can be useful for a calculation step in a formula.

    Yes, No

    Yes

    Custom Description

    The custom description overrides the default generated name. You can use either a fixed text
    OrderUse the order attribute to reorder the rows.1, 2, 3...Max + 1
    Item LabelThe default name of the item is displayed.n/an/a
    Dimension1 ...Dimension nA column for each of the dimension on which the list is created. A member or a variable can be selectedMember or a Variablen/a
    DrillBy assigning a drill list to a row, a drill icon will appear in front of the line in the report. This drill list allows the end-user to drill to that list. If a dimension member of an item is a parent in the dimension hierarchy then the end user can also assign a dynamic drill to an item instead of another list.Empty, PopulatedEmpty
    FormulaBy specifying a formula this

    The X coordinate defines the position of the tree member on the X Axis, see screenshot for the X positions.

    0, 1, 2, 3, ...

    0

    Y Coordinate

    The Y coordinate defines the position of the tree member on the Y Axis, see screenshot for the Y positions.

    Reverse Valuation

    When this attribute is set to yes, the Valuation will be reversed. This means negative becomes positive and the other way around. Changing the valuation will influence the variance coloring.

    No, Yes
    Insert Data LabelUse this filed to determine whether the item value will be displayed.Relevant for chart reports only.Yes/No No
    WidthDetermines the width of a columnEmpty, PopulatedEmpty

    Reverse Sign

    When this attribute is set to yes, the sign will be flipped.

    Threshold value for the Variance (e.g., Actual vs. Budget). If the Variance is less than this Threshold, then a neutral variance color is used (Orange). Otherwise Red (indicating an unfavorable variance) or Green (favorable variance) is used. Use e.g. -200;300 for an absolute threshold or -10%;20% for a relative threshold.

    Empty, Populated

    This value determines whether a column will be visible in the report.Yes/NoYes
