Have you ever wondered why your spreadsheet has only two dimensions?

Something is missing.

Just think of a simple figure: sales.Dimension In the spreadsheet

And what‘s about hierarchies?

Sales World

Sales EuropeSales North Am.Sales South Am.Sales AsiaSales …

Sales FranceSales UKSales GermanySales ItalySales …

Your spreadsheet cannot do that alone.

Don‘t worry!

There is a solution…

…you should use a multidimensional data storage.
