Point of View (PoV) Options

The content of the report can be customized using the PoV options, which can be viewed by clicking the blue arrow at the top of the report.

This report uses a cascading logic. The selection made in the Legal Entity Combobox influences the displayed results of the Cost Center Combobox which in turn influences the content of the Employee Combobox. If there is no value stored in the cube for the chosen Combobox selection, an entry line for Salary Increase amount or Gathering Hours will be displayed. Otherwise, other salary or wage-related positions will be displayed.

The available options are described below:

Cell Locking

For all planning reports, data entry is only possible when a single legal entity, a single cost center and a single employee are selected. Cell locking prevents the entry of data in fields that draw on multiple sources.

Every account in the Personnel Costs_measure dimension contains the PCalculation attribute, which defines the rule that is implemented on the element. When this attribute is populated, cell locking is activated in the planning reports and data cannot be entered.

For example, in the first screenshot below, the Wage element contains information for PCalculation. Thus, the planning report will NOT allow values to be written to the database.

In the Human Resources Wages and Salary report, data can be entered in forecast months that are indicated with a reversed hatched area: The area where data entry is possible is indicated by a gray box as shown in the screenshot below:
