Report Data

The report contains two tables per page (depending on the number of event statuses selected in the report form) each containing all market/event data per event status. Each Table will contain a number of rows and columns that directly corresponds with the number of market segments and revenue types selected on the report form. The last column of each event status table will contain a subtotal by market segment for each of the selected revenue types. The last row of the event status table will contain grand totals for all columns.

Note: Depending on the number of filters selected prior to generating this report, there will always be at least two pages as the last page contains a summary with calculated grand totals for all selected filters.
