Custom groups (Item selection)

To work with custom groups, click the "Custom groups" button on the toolbar.

A custom group is a user-selected subset of a dimension's members. Groups can be either Compound or Calculated.

• A Compound group is formed by applying one of the following calculations to the values of the group members:
  • Total
  • Average
  • Minimum
  • Maximum
• A Calculated group is formed by applying a user-provided formula to the values of the group members.

The Custom groups page shows a list of all the custom groups that have been created for the current dimension.

• To include a custom group in the current report, select its checkbox.
• To remove a custom group from the current report, clear its checkbox.
• To delete a custom group, click the "Delete" icon for the group.
• To change the order of custom groups, use the up and down arrows.

Creating a new custom group

• To create a new compound group, click Create compound group. The Edit compound group page appears.

• Custom groups are saved with the report they appear in. If you want to save a custom group for use with other reports, you can save the current selections as a profile. See Profiles.
