Subsidiary Views - Ratio Formula

MarkTurkenburg_*8288

Hi Team,

 

In both the Subsidiary views training video and in the Planual it mentions that Subsidiary views should be used where a ratio needs to be in the same module but doesn't full require full dimensionality 

 

Can anyone provide an example of this I'm I can't picture it

 

Thanks!

@MarkTurkenburg ,

 

Hopefully the below helps...Essentially, it is using the summary method of Ratio (instead of Sum, Max, etc.)

Nice 1 @rob_marshall!

 

Thanks - that makes sense

 

Always helps to see an example!

Basically, unlike filters, you can't reference a line item that is not in the same module for either the numerator or denominator of the Ratio summary method so you have no option but to include it as a subsidiary view (if it doesn't require the same dimensions of the module)

Thanks for the detail @einas.ibrahim !
