7.1.8.2.5 Financial Statements - Trends

The “Financial Statements – Trends” Report describes the trend of the Financial Statements reporting lines with respect to As-of-Date.

You can use a series of Report Prompts, as previously described, to filter the data according to key attributes pertaining to the underlying Management Ledger data.

As described in the previous section Working with Financial Statement Reporting Lines, to perform a correct analysis, you should select a single FE Reporting Line that you want to use for your analysis. The report displays the underlying data according to the following Charts’ logic:
  • Select Org Unit Hierarchy level: The chart provides you with a selection capability for the desired Org Unit Hierarchical level.
  • Select Product Hierarchy level: The chart provides you with a selection capability for the desired Product Hierarchical level.
  • Select Financial Statements Metric: The chart provides you with a selection capability for the desired Financial Element reporting line. The Financial Element Leaf Name is the actual data on which the reporting is based whereas the chart provides with the parent levels for ease of finding out the Financial Element Leaf member.
    The columns displayed in the chart are the following:
    • Financial Element Level 1 Name
    • Financial Element Level 2 Name
    • Financial Element Level 3 Name
    • Financial Element Leaf Name
  • Organization Unit Hierarchy: The chart provides you with two levels of the hierarchy – the selected level from the “Select Org Unit Hierarchy level” as well as the Org Unit leaf nodes. You use this chart to further filter down the “Financial Statements – Trends” charts.
  • Product Hierarchy: The chart provides you with two levels of the hierarchy – the selected level from the “Select Product Hierarchy level” as well as the Product leaf nodes. You use this chart to further filter down the “Financial Statements – Trends” charts.
  • Financial Statements Line by Organization Unit and As-of-Date: The chart reports the trend analysis of the Financial Statements reporting lines with respect to As-of-Date and it is split by Currency and Org Unit (the Org Unit display is based on the Org Unit Hierarchy level you’re analyzing).
