Company Island

Field Description
Include Subordinates In this field, you can specify whether or not the report should include figures concerning possible subordinate companies for each company in the specified Selection Criteria, that is, companies that have been assigned to the current company as subordinate companies in the Company Information workspace. The structure functions on several levels, meaning that one company can be subordinate to a company that itself is a subordinate company to another company.

If this field is marked, the report will include figures for all subordinate companies for each company in the selection criteria. Information from all subordinate companies is included, even if one or more subordinate companies is not within the range of companies in the dimension control. Note, however, that if a subordinate company is within the selection criteria, the figures for this company will be represented more than once on the printout, as the company will be represented both as a subordinate company and as an individual company with possible subordinate companies of its own. It is therefore recommended only to mark this field if the selection criteria only concerns one company.
