Management reporting commentary boxes - size by version

In management reporting is it possible to link commentary boxes to versions? e.g. Version A may have lots of commentary about revenue and very little on COGS, Version B has little on Rev and lots on COGS - this will make our report spacing look awkward.

Can you confirm if the commentary box is a grid card with a text line item? You can enable the rich text setting for the commentary line item.

Per discussion with Anaplan we can achieve something similar by using a table card in management reporting, then filtering on blank cells - this allows for relevant commentary per version/page dimensions only. (can also add conditional formatting to this)

Hi here is an example of an approach I've taken when recreating a management presentation pack (the numbers and goals are anonymised)

I used a table card and then applied filtering, sort and conditional formatting.

The underlying module generates the text from underlying model values and freeform commentary. The CF is based on performance vs plan and then sorted based on the performance. Blank cells are filtered out.

The module is dimension by quarter so this all automatically reorders and updates when you change the period page selector.
