MicroStrategy ONE

Including Objects from the Base or View Report

You create a view report if you do any of the following:

  • Move objects from the grid of a report to the Report Objects
  • Use a view filter
  • Create a derived metric

The report before you made these kinds of modifications is referred to as the base report. The template details can show all the objects on the report, regardless of whether they are on the report grid, if you select Base. If you select View, only those objects on the report grid are included in the template details.

Base or View Report Setting: Examples

For example, a report contains the metrics Revenue, Cost, and Profit, but Profit is not on the report grid. Profit is only displayed in the Report Objects.

  • If you set Units from View or Base to Base, all three metrics show in the Report Details pane, as shown below:

  • If you set Units from View or Base to View, only Revenue and Cost are shown in the Report Details pane, as shown below:
