19 Creating and Updating OLAP Reports Creating an OLAP report The Create Parameter Field dialog box appears. 9. Select default values, prompting text, and other options, and then click OK. Note: • • Once you have created a parameter, access to the Member Selector dialog box is disabled for the dimension until you delete the parameter. If you create a row/column parameter, the View Cube command and the Cube View tab are not available. 10. If you want to delete a parameter, select the appropriate dimension and click Delete. When you click OK in the Delete Link to Parameter Field dialog box, the program removes the parameter description from the dimension. 11. Click Next. The Slice/Page screen appears. Setting sliced dimensions and specifying the number of grids Use this screen to set sliced dimensions and to specify the number of grids that are required. The Slice area determines the boundaries that will be placed on your report. For example, if you have a time dimension that is made up of fiscal quarter members, you could specify the report return the results for a specific quarter. Note: If all of your members were used in the Rows/Column tab, nothing will appear here. The Page area enables you to determine the number of grids and the subject of each. For example, if you have a product dimension, you could put this in the page area and specify two different products. This would result in two grids with the same rows, columns, and formatting, but each one would be based on a different product. 488 Crystal Reports 2008 User's Guide
