Navigation in the Variation Settings 

Use

Depending on the report type (Report Painter or Report Writer report), you have different possibilities for the navigation in variation settings in the report definition and executed report.

Executed Report

Levels of detail can be defined

If a selection set contains more than one value, the Report Writer accumulates the data for the different values. By entering appropriate values in the Vary Frm and Vary To fields (to define a variation range), you can instruct the Report Writer to create different reports for the different characteristic values, as well as for the different set levels (if the selection set is a single-dimension set).

Once you have entered the variation data and executed the report's report groups the selection variation is activated automatically.
