For my customer I am creating a substantial number of seperate Subject Areas (50+), which means that users are presented with a long list of Subject Areas when they want to start a new Analysis.

Is there a way to create a drill-down hierarchy of Subject Areas like i.e:

Human Resources

- Performance Review

- Payrol

- etc

Marketing

- Campains

- Resellers

Finance

- General Ledger

- Budgeting

In the above example, users would only see Human Resources, Marketing and Finance catagories, with the option to expand on each to see the available Subject Areas.

Thanks for any suggestions!

    If you're really talking about SAs then: No, that's not possible.

    In addition to Christian's reply ... to keep the list manageable, SAs should be 'mapped' to business function and then security applied so that people only see what is pertinent to their business function.

    We do, but there are a number of localized reporting teams that create dashbpards for all business functions so they need access to all SA's. They'll just have to live with a long list of SA's.
