What is a Content Set?What is a Content Set?
• Content Sets are used to override row/column
account assignments and display types to create
multiple variations of existing reports
• You can generate many similar reports in a single run
by using content sets

• Using the PE (Page Expand) functionality, one FSG
can generate three separate P&L’s:
– One P&L for Co 01
– One P&L for Co 02
– One P&L for Co 99

How do you define a FSG
Report?
How do you define a FSG
Report?
• Reports are created by specifying a combination of
report components (ie Row Set, Column Set, etc).
Typically, values specified when defining a report
override values specified at the individual component
level
• The value entered in the Title field will appear at the
top of the report
