Defining Simple Form Page and Point of View

You can select dimensions and members for the page axis and Point of View. The Point of View dimensions and members must be valid for the form type and not assigned to a page, column, or row axis. The Point of View sets the unique dimension members that define intersections of data.

When you set user variables for forms, the variable name displays in the Point of View.

To define page axis and Point of View:

  1. Open the form, and then click Layout.
  2. Click the Dimension Selector and then drag the dimension to Page to add it to the form page axis.
  3. Click the Member Selector for each page axis dimension and select members.
  4. Repeat these steps to assign multiple dimensions to the page axis.

    Assigning multiple dimensions to the page axis enables users to select dimensionality while entering data. Users can select Display Options to specify whether the system sets the page selection to the most recently used selection.

  5. In Dimension Properties, select or clear options for page dimensions.
  6. Optional: Click the Dimension Selector and then drag the dimension to the Point of View to add it to the form Point of View. Repeat this action for each dimension that you want to move to the Point of View.
  7. In Point of View, click the Member Selector for each dimension and then select members.
  8. In Dimension Properties, select or clear options for Point of View dimensions.
  9. Click Save to save your work and continue, or click Finish to save your work and close the form.
