Source information

Finance Key Ratio is based on a series of M3 Reports created with the M3 Report Generator (RGS 600).

The time dimension used is Fiscal Period and it has to be understood in combination with the element chosen in the Report Column dimension. For example, Period 201502 in combination with Report Column End This Year will not show the Value for 2015. It will show the Value for 201512.

Totals for a given year are always represented in the last month of the respective year. Selecting the Year element results in meaningless numbers as the values are cumulated on the period level.
