Top & Bottom Analysis report layout

This section describes the structure of the Top & Bottom Analysis report layout and its key components.

The Filter panel and data grid in the Top & Bottom Analysis report work together dynamically to help explore data across multiple dimensions. When you interact with the report and use functions such as Analyze By and Expand To, dimensions move between the filter and data grid depending on your actions.

Note: A dimension can only be displayed in one place at a time, either in the Filter panel or in the data grid, but not in both. For more details, see Top & Bottom Analysis report key features.
