DBI Introduction
Parameter: Each dashboard contains a set of
parameters that you can use to change the data
that is displayed on the dashboard. Some
parameters, such as Date or Period are common to Parameter
all dashboards. Other parameters, such as
Commodity, are unique to a specific dashboard.
Parameters are based on dimensions, which
organize data into reporting hierarchies. Each
dashboard has a parameter that acts as the

dimension differs
depending on the dashboard. For example, the
primary dimension on the Profit and Loss
dashboard is Manager.
