ANALyTIC rEPorTS
Reporting on data with PerformancePoint often involves the creation of analytic
reports that include analytic grids and analytic charts. The Analytic compo-
nents require Analysis Services. Both are designed by dragging and dropping
available objects from the Details pane on the right side of the Dashboard
Designer into the Rows/Series, Columns/Bottom Axis, or Background designer
panes located below the report design. The analytic report requires that the
Rows/Series and Columns/Bottom Axis contain items while placing items
in the Background is optional. An example analytic report in design within
Dashboard Designer is shown in Figure 7-8.
