MFMP System Overview What is MyFloridaMarketPlace (MFMP)? Established in 2003, MyFloridaMarketPlace (MFMP) is the State of Florida’s eProcurement system. MFMP offers a full source-to-payment process, starting with the electronic quote or solicitation, moving to the contract or purchase order creation, then receipt of the goods or acceptance of the services, and ending with the invoice reconciliation and vendor payment. Transactions in MFMP are automated, which provides validation of information and integration with the Florida Accounting Information Resource (FLAIR). Both Purchasing and Finance and Accounting (F&A) customers benefit from the reduction in error rates and source-to-payment cycle times achieved through processing in MFMP.
MFMP Applications MyFloridaMarketPlace is composed of five different systems. The first four are integrated, while the Vendor Bid System is a stand-alone application.
Buyer - is the application state agencies use to work with registered vendors to issue purchase orders (PO) to receive goods and process invoices.
Analysis - is an analytical reporting application that combines data for MFMP purchase order, contracts, vendors, and invoices and FLAIR payment records.
Sourcing - is an electronic notification, bidding, and quoting application used for State Term Contracts and agency eQuotes.
Vendor Information Portal (VIP) - is the system in which vendors register to do business with the state, pay their transaction fees, and elect to participate in bidding opportunities.
Vendor Bid System (VBS) - is the official online repository for upcoming grants, competitive solicitations, single source, public meetings, and agency decisions.
MFMP Reporting Options General/Transactional Reporting The Buyer Application gives agency customers the ability to create system searches for MFMP transactions. For steps on how to create a System Search, view the MFMP Buyer Manual.
Operational Data Reporting MFMP provides agency customers with various reports that contain operational data. These reports are located on a secure site and may be used to assist in the maintenance of customer accounts, shipping and billing addresses, tracking orders, and reconciling invoices. If agency customers need information that is not available from a current reporting option, they can request a new report. For more information about MFMP Secure Reports, please view the MFMP Secure Reports Job Aid.
Analytical/Customized Reporting MFMP Analysis is the MFMP reporting application that agencies use for insight into spending patterns such as how much the state is spending, from which vendors their agency is purchasing, or what products and services are they are buying. To generate reports, customers must have the Analysis group in MFMP Buyer to access the Analysis application. This manual will focus on this type of reporting.
Reporting Manual| 5
MFMP Analysis Overview What is MFMP Analysis? The Analysis application provides insight into the State of Florida’s spending patterns and gives customers the
power to base buying decisions on spend data gained from customizable reports. Analysis improves customers’ ability to see spending patterns and identify how much they spend, where they spend it, and on what products and services. Analysis cycle time reports also provide insight into agency approval processes, allow agencies to identify potential bottlenecks, and make process improvements.
In MFMP Analysis, managers can create analytical reports and graphs, such as pie charts, bar charts, and pivot tables. They enable customers to investigate spending patterns and identify opportunities to improve cycle times.
Agency Customers can manipulate their reports in many ways to reveal or hide data or view it at different levels. They can export data to Excel, save reports on their dashboard for instant viewing, share them with other customers, have the schedule reports and much more. The number of different reports customers can create in MFMP Analysis is nearly limitless because they have full selection of the data elements available to add to their reports.
Access For MFMP Analysis access, customers should contact their agency system administrator. The MFMP customer service desk (CSD) can identify agency system administrators, if necessary.
Navigating through MFMP Analysis There are several tools available to help agency customers navigate through MFMP.
Dashboard The home screen, better known as the Dashboard, organizes the tasks and information that customers use frequently. It is also a starting point for creating, searching, and managing reports.
The portlets provide access to pre-defined content, and MFMP highlights certain reports within the last 1-2 years such as PO by Commodity Code and Invoices by Agency. These portlets can be rearranged or removed to fit customers’ desires.
Drop Down Boxes Drop down boxes throughout MFMP include the last five selections a customer used. If a desired selection is not listed as one of the last five, customers can select ‘Search for more.’ This allows customers to search for and select additional options.
Calendar Icon The calendar icon aids with entering dates:
Double arrows move forward / backward by year
Single arrow moves forward / backward by month
Add Dates manually using the following formats:
o M/D/YY or M/DD/YY
o MM/D/YY or MM/DD/YY
o M/D/YYYY or M/DD/YYYY
o MM/D/YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY

Required Fields / Error Messages Asterisks (*) identify required fields in MFMP. If customers do not complete a required field, a red asterisk displays along with an error message. Once all required fields are completed and error messages are resolved, customers can complete their transaction. MFMP displays detailed error messages at the top of the screen, including the number of errors. That number reduces as the customer clears the system errors. Customers can roll their mouse over the highlighted error for more information; use the next button in the error message to move between errors.

Reporting Manual| 7
Fundamental Reporting Concepts MFMP Analysis reports are comprised of different types of data. Every report can display data from these sources on a pivot table. Reports created with the Analysis application can be manipulated to view different scenarios for selected data.
Report Structure The following concepts and terms as used in the MFMP Analysis application:
Facts - Represent the basic transaction data that is being analyzed, such as Purchase Orders or Invoices.
Measures – Or better known as Pre-defined measures, are the numeric data values from a fact, such as the number of lines in an invoice or an item’s unit price on a purchase order. Measures are always values that can be calculated, such as invoice amounts. At least one measure is required per report.
Dimensions – Provide details within a single fact or multiple facts. For example, both purchase orders and invoices have Supplier and Commodity dimensions.
Hierarchies – Different levels of data that are found within the dimensions. For example, within the Commodity dimension, the UNSPSC hierarchy has multiple data fields available.
Data Fields – Provide data values and detailed information within the hierarchies. For example, within the UNSPSC hierarchy, the multiple data fields can be selected to examine different aspects of the report’s data.
User Defined Fields – Measures generated from calculations based on data fields that contain numerical
values. These custom fields can be added to a report to display data that is not covered by a pre-defined
measure. To learn more on how to create a user defined field, view the User Defined Fields Appendix.
Pivot Tables – Spreadsheet-like structure of row fields, column fields, page fields, and data fields. View the
Pivot Tables section below for more information.
Pivot Tables A pivot table is an Excel spreadsheet-like tool that is designed to summarize data. The table structure consists of rows and columns with an added layer of page and data fields. Page fields allow customers to filter report information in rows and columns by specific data fields such as agency or commodity code. Agency customers can utilize pivot tables to perform various tasks such as quickly summarizing large amounts of data or viewing all values that appear within a specific field.
Fact: Contract
Measure: Contract Count
Dimension: Commodity
Hierarchies:
o UNSPSC UNSPSC (L1)
UNSPSC (L2)
UNSPSC (L3)
Data Fields
Reporting Manual| 8
Viewing and Manipulating Data in the Pivot Table
Row Fields – are a vertical representation of the data and they correspond to the rows in a traditional spreadsheet.
Column Field – are a horizontal representation of the data and they correspond to the columns in a traditional spreadsheet.
Data Fields – provide the data values and detailed information within the pivot table.
Page Fields – act as filters on the other fields. For instance, if Invoice Type is selected as a page field, the report can show data for all invoice types or a subset of invoice types.
Applied Filters – Displays the hierarchy filters that were applied to the report in the form of Breadcrumbs. A breadcrumb is the filtered information for rows, columns, or data values. When a customer drills down or collapses the data, the applied filters area shows the location of data in the hierarchies on the pivot table.
Breadcrumbs
Page Fields
Row Fields
Data Fields
Column Fields
Tip: Customers can return to any previous view of the data in a report by clicking the breadcrumbs in the Applied Filters area on the pivot table.
Reporting Manual| 9
Navigating the Pivot Table
Drilling Down – Drilling down lets customers go from high-level data down to more detailed data for
specific rows, columns, and/or data values in a report. It filters out any data that does not fit into the area
of focus. Customers can drill down to more detailed levels within a hierarchy, if available, or by data fields
at the page level. For example, when viewing invoice data, a customer might drill down on a row in the
UNSPSC hierarchy from general to specific commodity categories, based on the desired level of the code.
Rolling Up – Rolling up summarizes the data by moving up in the hierarchy of the data field. For example,
rolling up a time dimension hierarchy allows customers to roll data up from month, to quarter, to year,
which aggregates monthly totals into quarterly totals and finally into yearly totals.
Filtering – Filtering reduce the amount of data displayed in the pivot table. Filtering different parameters
makes analyzing the pivot table much quicker.
Skipping Levels – Allows customers to skip directly to the desired hierarchy level without having to go
through every level (rolling up the data). For example, a customer can skip directly from the year level to
the month level in a date hierarchy without first viewing quarters.
25000000:
Commercial and
Military and Private
Vehicles and their
Accessories and
Components
25100000: Motor
vehicles 25101501: Minibuses
25101500: Passenger
motor vehicles
Tip: When investigating data, customers can add any dimensions they want to investigate as page fields. This will give them the ability to begin with a summary report and then drill down into page field hierarchies to focus on a particular area.
Reporting Manual| 10
Report Display Settings
Field Settings – Use the Format tab on the Field Settings menu to format the data within the measure(s)
selected in the report. The settings that are available will depend on the fields selected. Customers can
view the data as normal, % of row, % of column, running total of row, or running total of column.
Customers may change the Number Format to a percent or currency rather than the system default. Access
Field Settings by selecting the Detail View or Aggregate View drop down menu and select Field Settings.
Tip: Customers can only skip levels in hierarchies with fields that have multiple levels. For example, customers may skip levels in a UNSPSC hierarchy, because the data values associated with the hierarchy level can be included into the level above it. However, customers cannot skip level for hierarchies such as Requester or Agency Name because they only have one level within their dimension.
Reporting Manual| 11
Display Options – Use the Others Bucketing tab on the Display Options menu to limit the number of items
displayed in the pivot table. Items that do not meet the set criteria are subtotaled as Others. Access the
Display Options menu by clicking Edit next to Display Options in the Applied Filter section. o Number of Rows - Sets the minimum and maximum number of rows displayed on the report. By
default, the pivot table shows a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 8 rows. All report rows that
exceed the maximum number are grouped into a row named Others. Keep in mind that the pivot
table updates faster when it has fewer rows.
o 80-20 Rule - Shows the top spend items that compose the specified percentage of the total spend.
Remaining items are placed in Others. By default, the pivot table shows 100% of the items that
make up the total. For example, for a 60/40 ratio, the report display the items that make up the top
60% of the total and groups the remaining 40% of items in Others.
o Minimum Subtotal Percentage - Shows all items that contribute no less than the specified
percentage of total spend. Remaining items are placed in Others. For example, show only suppliers
which contribute at least 5% to total spend. Suppliers which do not contribute at least 5% to total
spend are placed under Others.
o Summary Row / Columns - To display total and variance columns on the pivot table, click the Show
total or variance columns on the pivot table at all times check box. Click to clear the check box to
hide these columns. To display subtotal rows on the pivot table, click the Show subtotal rows on the
pivot table at all times check box. Click to clear the check box to hide these rows. Setting any other
options on the Display Menu will override these settings.
Reporting Manual| 12
Aggregate / Detail View
Aggregate View – Use to view show significant trends by combining Individual pieces of data together into
hierarchy levels. The aggregate view provides the overall trends in data and customers may then drill down
into the different levels of the hierarchies to examine trends in specific areas.
Detail View – Shows all of the individual pieces of data that form the Source Data (Available Measures) in a
pivot outline or grid. In the detail view, there is an option to displaying the report as a flat data table.
Pivot Table Tabs Pivot Table – The default tab displays the report in a spreadsheet-like structure of row fields, column fields,
data fields, and page fields, referred to as a pivot table.
Chart – Displays the current pivot table as a chart where customers have the option to modify the field settings for the chart values.
Dashboard – Displays the report as a Chart or high level Pivot Table with the option to add either to the customer’s Dashboard. View the Dashboard section for more information about customizing Dashboards.
Pivot Layout
Pivot Outline – Displays the pivot table without dividing lines and is useful for showing the hierarchical
relationship between different rows of the report and looking at high-level or combined values.
Pivot Grid – Displays report data with grid lines to provide a clearer connection between individual rows
and their totals by displaying each hierarchy and level as a separate column and dividing different sections
of the table with lines.
Reporting Manual| 13
Actions Button
Edit in Wizard – Returns the customer to the Refine Data page to change the data fields selected on the
report.
Save Changes – Gives the customers an option to save their current report to their Personal Workspace, or
publish it to a Public Reports folder so that others access it.
Display Options – Please see Display Options for more information.
Export Data – This option exports the report based on the format configured in the Configure Export
option; it defaults to an Excel export option. View the Exporting Reports section for more information.
Configure Export – Use this option to configure the export format and settings of the report. View the
Exporting Reports section for more information.
Reporting Manual| 14
Prepackaged Reports There are a number of reports available in the Prepackaged Reports folder that the MFMP team has developed for agencies to use in specific scenarios. They are designed to save agencies time developing their own customized reports. Analysis prepackaged reports are configured to pull data for all agencies. Agency Customers can open the reports, customize them as desired, and save them to their agency’s public folder or their own personal folder. Prepackaged are grouped into folders based on their topic. For example, the Invoice Summary Report is located with the Buyer Settlement Reports group. For a complete list of prepackaged reports, view the Prepackaged Reports Appendix.
MFMP recommends that customers explore the available prepackage reports before they invest time creating a
customized analytical report. If there is a report that provides some of the information that a customer is looking
for, they have the option to refine the report to meet their needs. To learn more about refining reports, view the
Pivot Table section. To learn how to save a prepackage report view Accessing and Managing Folders.
Accessing Prepackage Reports On the menu bar, click Manage.
Select Prepackaged Reports.
Left-click on the report or folder and select Open.
o To see the variety of reports available within a specific folder, click the expand arrow by the folder or click the folder name and select Open from the drop down menu.
Reporting Manual| 15
Analytical Reports An Analysis report arranges numerical data pulled from the Buyer application or a calculation using that data, in a
pivot table format (View the Pivot Table section to learn more about Pivot Table structure). Analysis reports are
designed to help analyze procurement activities. Reports can provide customers insight into agency spending or a
supplier’s performance.
There are three main steps to create an analytical report in MFMP Analysis:
Select the report’s source data.
Lay out the pivot table by placing data in different areas of the pivot table (row, column, or page fields).
Refine the report data to limit amount of data displayed in the report.
Select a Report’s Source Data On the menu bar, click Create, then select Analytical Report.
Enter a title and optional description for the report. If a description is entered, it will appear below the report title in the folder where the report is saved.
Choose a fact from the drop-down menu. The fact selected will determine what type of transactional information will be analysis and will determine the data fields that can be add to the report. For more
information, view the Analysis Field Glossary for a detailed list of the reporting facts and the data fields each contains.
The application defaults the Currency to the US Dollar. Customers may not edit this field.
Select the relevant available measures:
o Drag Pre-defined data fields from the list into the Data area of the pivot table on the right
or
o Create a User-defined field, for more information view the User Defined Field Appendix.
Click Next.
Tip: Before creating a new analytical report, customers should double check to see if there is a prepackaged report available that contains information they can use.
Tip: To create a report, agency customers must add at least one measure.
Reporting Manual| 16
Structure the Pivot Table Agency customers will structure the layout of the pivot table by adding data fields as page fields, row fields, column
fields, and/or data.
In the report, the row fields appear on left of the report table and the column fields become the column headings
across the top of the pivot table. Page fields act as filters for report data. The data section reflects the data that
appears in the body of the report.
When creating a report, customers have the option to show detail fields in the data section of the report. Each fact
has a default set of detail fields; however, the customer can add or remove the default detail fields with other data
fields.
Tip: The more row, column, and detail fields added to the report, the longer it takes the report to retrieve data from the database. MFMP recommends that customers start with a few row and column fields and add more as needed or when exporting.
Reporting Manual| 17
The system defaults to display all the data fields available under available hierarchies. Customers can view all
available data fields by selecting Available Fields from the drop down menu.
To add row or column fields to the report, drag data fields from the list of available hierarchies to the Row Fields and Column Fields area of the pivot table, or click the field names and choose Add As: Row Field or Add As: Column Field.
To add page fields to the report, drag fields from the list of available hierarchies to the Page Fields area of the pivot table, or click the field names and choose Add As: Page Field.
To display detail fields in the report by default, click the Show detail fields in report check box; the report will open in detail view. To add detail fields, click carrot to display the current list of detail fields, then drag a field from the list of available hierarchies or available fields and drop it in the Detail Fields area.
Click Next.
Reporting Manual| 18
Refine the Data Customers must select the date range for which they want to view the data. Each fact has a preset date field by
which customers refine their report. This can be either a fixed or relative date range. If they use a relative date
range, the report automatically updates with data for dates relative to the current date every time the report is
opened.
Specify the date range to refine report data:
o Relative date range: Customers will be able to set a range of dates that is automatically updated with new data whenever they view their analytical report.
Time period: Select months, quarters, or years from the pull-down menu.
Most Recent and Future time periods: Select the number of most recent and future time
periods to use in the filter from the pull down menu.
Include current partial year: Clear the check box to remove current partial time period data
from the report.
o Fixed date range: Choose a specific fixed date range by manually entering the dates or use the calendar icon.
Click the Automatically adjust the range to include complete months check box to optimize
performance of the report.
o Advance Options: Provides different date fields. The advance options available will differ depending on the report fact selected.
Refine date using: Select an additional hierarchy to filter data from the pull-down menu.
Date Type: Choose whether to filter the data by choosing Calendar or Fiscal from the drop
down menu.
Click the Include data with dates not set (unclassified) check box to include all data in the
report, even if it is not associated with a date.
Reporting Manual| 19
o Customers can choose specific details to add to the report by clicking the Customize this form link. For example, if the field Agency is added as a row field, it will appear as a Hidden Field. Customers could select the Show button to move it to the Form Fields section above. Any field within the form field section can be filtered prior to running the report. To filter this field, click the Done button and then selecting the desired filter for that field.
o Click Always show this customized form checkbox to always be prompted to use the Customized
Form when the parameterized form of this report is used. View the Parameterized Reports for more information.
o Click Done, and the customer will be redirected back to the Refine Data page to continue creating the report.
o To complete the report and see the pivot table click Run Report or Done.
o For instructions on how to save and export report results, view the Managing Folders and Reports
and Exporting Reports sections.
Reporting Manual| 20
Multi-Fact Reports The process of creating a multi-fact report is similar to the one for creating an analytical report. Multi-fact reports
allow customers to compare relationships between data in different facts within a single report. Customers can also
create new user-defined fields based on data fields from different facts.
When two or more facts are compared, customers will be able to see the data fields within those facts; however,
customers can only compare data for facts that have dimensions in common. View a list of available Reporting Facts
in the Analysis Reporting Glossary.
The following diagram shows the intersection of two facts and their dimensions.
Creating Multi-Fact Reports On the menu bar, select Analytical Report from the Create drop down menu.
Enter a title and optional description.
Choose Create multi-fact report from the Facts drop down menu.
In the Source Data section, select the facts to compare. As facts or fields are added or removed, the field mappings on the lower half of the page will change to reflect the new selection(s).
PO Invoice
Encumbrance
Commodity
Supplier
PUI Number
Agency
Reporting Manual| 21
Review each fact’s field mappings by updating the Map To area within the Field Mapping section.
o For example, if you are creating a report on the Contract and Vendor Location facts, you can choose from the pull-down menus the fields you want to use for both in the Time dimension.
When the mapping is complete, click Done.
To complete the multi-fact report, follow the steps in Analytical Reports.
Reporting Manual| 22
Compound Reports A compound report allows agency customers to view different charts and tables from different reports in one
compound report. In a compound report, customers might see the pie chart of one report, the line chart of a
second report, and the table view of a third report. In addition, compound reports can include summarized views,
which are table-view combinations of values extracted from reports.
Suppose management requested a report that contains an overview of purchase order and invoice spend by
commodity and supplier, off-contract spend and spend variance. This request can be fulfilled by adding different
analytical reports to a compound report. Compound report filters are designed to examine specific data across
different reports. For instance, using the example above, suppose management requested to see the purchase
order and invoice spend data for a specific agency. An agency filter can be to the report and then filtered to show
the requested agency.
Creating Compound Reports
Configure Content
As compound reports contain information from multiple analytical reports, the analytical reports that are going to
be utilized will need to be created prior to creating the compound report. Customers can use reports they have
saved to their Personal Workspace or they can select reports from Public Reports or Prepackaged Reports. To add
content to a compound report:
On the menu bar, click Create and select Compound Report from the drop down menu.
Enter a title and optional description. If a description is entered, it will appear below the report title in the folder where the report is saved.
Click the radio button to add content to a specific area within the report: Left Column, Right Column, or Bottom.
Reporting Manual| 23
Click Add Content and choose the type of content that will be added to the report from the pull-down menu.
o Choose Chart/Table to add a chart or table from a saved analytical report or a prepackaged report. Search the folders to find the desired analytical report and choose how the report should appear: as a table or a chart (pie, bar, column, line, area, or radar).
o Choose Summarized View to use any combination of unique values from any analytical reports. View the Summarized View section to learn more.
Repeat the previous step until the basic content is added.
Use the controls to change the order in which content appears or to move it between areas.
o In order to work with content in a specific area, select the corresponding radio button: Left Column, Right Column, or Bottom.
o Click the side arrow (<<, >>) buttons to move selected content from one column to another.
o Click the up and down arrow buttons to move selected content up or down in a column and rearrange report order.
o Move content to the left column and click X to delete it.
o When the layout is complete, click Next.
Create a Summarized View
In Analysis, a summarized view pulls in single values or totals of values from previously created analytical reports.
The layout of a summarized view is a two-column table. Customers can combine values from any of their analytical
reports into a single summarized view. To create a summarized view:
On the Configure Content page, click Add Content and choose Summarized View.
Enter a title for the summarized view.
Navigate the folders to locate the analytical reports that contain the fields to include in the summarized view and click the desired report.
Reporting Manual| 24
In the Data Fields area, select a data field to add it to the summarized view.
In the Other Fields area, select a field and choose a level from the drop-down menu.
Once the all of the fields have been added from an analytical report, adjust their positions and descriptive labels:
o Click X next to the field to delete it.
o Use the up and down arrows to move fields up or down.
o Edit the field’s descriptive label.
If the design of the summarized view is correct, click OK to add it to the compound report.
Click Next to configuring filters. If additional content needs to be added to the report and/or the layout
needed to be edited, view the Configure Content section.
Configure Filters Filters in a compound report behave like page fields in an analytical report. For example, if a filter is added to the

User Defined Fields Overview
The Fundamental Reporting Concepts section discusses that User Defined Fields are measures generated from
calculations based on other fields that contain numerical values. These custom fields can be added to a report to
display data that is not covered by a pre-defined measure. Customers cannot create a user-defined field with data
that cannot be calculated mathematically. The following values cannot be added to a User Defined Field formula:
Data that returns a Boolean value (Yes/No)
Data that returns a status value (Approved/Not Approved)
Data that returns a text value (Names of suppliers)
Example: A customers wants to create a purchase order report that includes the average spend per purchase order.
Since average purchase order spend is not a pre-defined measure, the customer can create an User-defined field
for Average PO Spend with a custom formula that divides PO Spend by PO Count (PO Spend/PO Count).
Steps
To create a user-defined custom formula field:
On the Source Data page, click Create User-defined Field.
On the Definitions tab, enter a name and optional description for the formula field.
Tip: Counts of non-numeric data such as the number of suppliers can be added to create a User Defined Field.
Reporting Manual| 40
Choose Custom Formula from the Function Name pull-down menu to display the formula editor.
Add a pre-defined data field or count function to the formula:
o To add a pre-defined data field, click Add to Formula in the fields’ row.
o To add a count function, choose the dimension to count data in from the Dimension pull-down menu.
o Click Add to Formula to choose values from the Hierarchy and Level pull-down menus to get a count of data in a hierarchy or hierarchy level of the dimension, rather than of the whole dimension.
Add a mathematical operator to the formula by clicking the operator buttons (+, -, *, /, (, )) below the Formula list.
Continue adding fields, functions, and operators until the formula is created for the user-defined field.
Click Validate to verify that the formula is valid. If the formula is not valid, locate the source of the error, click Clear and add the corrected version of the formula.
Click OK to add the custom formula field to the report.
Tip: The name entered will appear on the field’s menu on the report pivot table, and if the name is added as a column field, it will appear as a column heading.

Common Performance – FAQ I ran a report and it did not come up immediately.
The response time is a function of the size of data being queried, the power of the hardware, and the speed of the
connection. Large, difficult queries on the database will always take longer than pre-run, stored queries. To
minimize report running time:
Schedule the report to run in the background and come back to it later.
Revise the query to filter the data to a smaller (but representative) set. It is not always necessary to see all the detail fields such as dates, suppliers, or commodities. Filtering the data will make the query run much quicker.
Revise the report to use less detailed dimensions/levels in the pivot table.
I ran a report and it timed out. Analysis reports time out after 180 seconds; if the report times out, it is a sign that the customer is trying to run a
demanding query. Additionally, if a query will yield a result of more than 10,000 lines of data, it will be stopped to
preserve processing power for the rest of the organization.
To keep a report from timing out:
Schedule the report to run in the background and come back to it later.
Revise the query to filter the data to a smaller (but representative) set. It is not always necessary to see all the detail fields such as dates, suppliers, or commodities. Filtering the data will make the query run much quicker.
Revise the query to use less detailed dimensions/levels in the pivot table.
I ran a report and all of my data did not display.
Analysis reports have a display limit of 201 lines in a pivot table. This allows most pivot tables to display all their
rows quickly, while cutting off the occasional long pivot table. For nested dimensions on a pivot table, this might
result in a little summary and a great deal of detail being invisible. To tailor a report’s display:
Re-think the goal of the query:
o Is there a need for both a summary and detail on the same report?
o Is there a need to look at all 200 lines in detail? If not, consider another view of the data.
Export the report to MS Excel, where the limit is higher. The pivot table’s abort parameter allows only 10,000 rows to be returned.
Revise the query to use less detailed dimensions/levels in the pivot table.
Reporting Manual| 42
Creating a Parameterized Report A parameterized report is an analytical report that a customer can pre-configure using parameters for specific
values, levels, or data. A parameterized report can be used for the following reasons:
For beginners or infrequent customers.
To present certain parts of data to specific customers.
When a report contains data fields that would make it run slow if it were running on the entire data set.
Parameterized reports can be set up to run on default settings or to ask the customer to choose values and settings
on the Refine Data page before running the report.
Step to parameterize a report:
Select the report and choose Open.
On the report pivot table, click Edit.
On the Refine Data page, click the Customize link.
To require customers to refine data whenever they open the report, click the Always show this customized form check box.
For each data field, decide how the customer of the report must interact with it:
o Click the Required check box to require the customer to select one or more levels or values from this field. They will only be allowed to work with the hierarchy levels or values selected.
o From the Selection Type pull-down menu, choose whether the customer can look for items across all levels of a hierarchy, or restrict the initial choice to the top level of the hierarchy.
o If the report contains more than one data field, use the up and down arrows to control their positions on the Refine Data page.
o Click X (Hide) next to a data field to hide it, moving it to the Hidden Fields area of the page. When a field is hidden, the customer cannot alter its settings. Click Show to show a hidden data field.
Click Done to save changes.
If prompted, refine the data in the report be selecting values on the Refine Data page. This page will appear only if the report is set up to require customer input.
Click Save to save the parameterized report.
Tip: To create a parameterized version of a prepackaged report, or a report another customer has published in the Public Reports folder, a personal copy of the report must be saved before it can be edited.
