A value is a category to which you can assign the analytical transactions that fall within your scope.

Values in example analytic view 'Revenue and costs by department':

• Sales department
• Purchasing department
• Administration department
• Support department.

ATTENTION!

If you want to work with dimensions (labels) within your analytic view to generate more advanced reports, you must link a value to at least one option of a dimension for each dimension used.

For a detailed description, see the article Manage dimensions.

Only a user with the 'Portal administrator', 'Portal back office', 'Management', 'Financial administration' or 'External accountant' role can create one or more values.
