The Data Mapping feature allows you to easily assess important business data for your model. Report data is mapped on to the model to provide visual output of the correlation between report results and the open model.
Mapping the report to the model colors the model to match the corresponding chart elements. The entire chart can be mapped onto the model, or you can choose which chart elements to map.
The chart displayed in the report control summarizes the actual values for the open model. However, the data mapped to the model may show different results, depending on the level of the model hierarchy included. You can specify the level at which the data mapping is applied from three options:
- First level children
- All assemblies (the value mapped to the lowest level assembly will take precedence over all others)
- Leaf node
Note: Data Mapping is not available in sketch mode.
