Setting Display Properties

You can set and edit options for form display, such as hiding forms or displaying missing values as blank, in the Layout tab.

You can also enable account-level annotations. Users can add annotations to accounts in forms if they have write access to the account, entity, scenario, and version members. Account-level annotations can vary by different combinations of Scenario, Version, and Entity dimensions.

Notes:

  • The Account dimension must be assigned to a row axis.

  • Account, Entity, Versions, and Scenario dimensions cannot be assigned to the column axis.

  • The Entity dimension can be assigned to the row, page, or Point of View axis.

  • Version and Scenario dimensions must be assigned to the page or Point of View axis.
