The Grid

The Grid is an interactive tool for the presentation and analysis of data. There are multi-level headers in the left and top parts of the grid. The 'headers' are filled with the dimension values; there are both horizontal and vertical 'headers'. The central part of the grid displays the values of the measures.

The grid consists of several regions, identified by numbers above:

  1. the grid title
  2. the filter region : dimensions included in this region can be used for filtering the grid data
  3. the vertical dimension headers : dimensions included in this region form the grid's vertical header
  4. the horizontal dimension headers : dimensions included in this region form the grid's horizontal header
  5. the vertical header of the grid
  6. the horizontal header of the grid
  7. data region
  8. the list of fields : the fields required for processing are dragged from the drop-down list : fields not required are dragged back to this list
