Using default row definitions -- Management Reporter CU6

Row definitions in Management Reporter allow you to specify what rows you'd like to see on your report.  Typically rows in the row definition are created using account, but any dimension in your Microsoft Dynamics ERP can be used when setting up a row definition.

With the default reports included in Management Reporter 2012 CU6, seven row definitions were included. Most of them were designed using Main Account Category, which lets them be generic enough for any customer to take and use without modification.   Let's take a look at how they are used.

Row Definition	How to use it
Balance Sheet	Show rows containing detail and totals for assets and liabilities by main account category
Cash Flow	Show rows containing detail for how cash is being used by main account category
Expenses	Show rows containing the different categories of expenses along with a total of all expenses
Ratios	Shows rows grouped by solvency, profitability and efficiency ratios
Sales	Show rows for sales, sales returns and discounts and net sale along with a percent of sales
Summary Income Statement	Show rows summarizing revenues, gross profit, operating expenses, net operating income and net income
Trial Balance	Show a single row containing the total balance for all accounts

As with the default column definitions, these row definitions were designed be with just about any column and report definition.
