AppEngine (v11): Create Dimension, element on top level and used in calculated element

florian-konath

Dear all,

I try to create a dimension in AppEngine (v11) in the following structure.

Element a

Element b

-> Element a (weight 1)

Element c

-> Element b (weight 1)

-> Element a (weight 1)

So basically showing a leaf element on the top level of the dimension but also using it in calculations. Creating the elements with their calculations works well.

I only get to such a structure:

Element c

-> Element b (weight 1)

-> Element a (weight 1)

But I don't find a way to show a or b also on top level. Anyone has a hint?

Thanks and best regards

Florian

Hello Florian,

I'm afraid what you are asking is not possible - as soon as your element a has a parent, it is no longer a top-level element. There is no way to show it on top level, and unter element b.

Hello Martin,
thanks for your answer. I exported an old Dimension which looked like this and was a bit confused that I didn't find a way to do it (also I tried it in Excel this morning). The "solution" was to activate the flat view tick mark in the dimension properties. It seems that then all elements are also shown in the dimension directly.

Best regards

Hello Florian.

In a hierarchy view, you can create a summary item on top level like "Element a_" witch contains only "Element a" as a child. (: And only technical ID must be different
