Unit sets - overview

Unit sets are used to organise the report structure in a report or a group of reports when the groups of rows and columns included in the report use data from the different data sources, or formulas must be applied to calculate the report values based on specific data from the explicitly defined groups of columns and rows. Unit sets and their properties are defined in the Unit sets (CS206030) window.

A unit set can include one or more units that define the calculation formulas (for report values), printing groups, and the data source for a data set to be used. Units allow for applying additional data filtering criteria and data calculations for the specific data set in the report. You can specify what units will be included in the unit set by adding the units in it, and organising the unit structure in the report. Each unit set can be used in a report or a group of reports, and each report can use only one unit set.

Every unit included in the unit set has a number of attributes. The unit attributes include the formulas used to calculate the report values, and the data source parameters used to select the data. Every unit can use either the formula or the data source parameters to define the data processing rules for the report.
