Multicoordinate Support for Cell Explorer

Preview Date: 2025-08-16. Production Date: 2025-09-20.
Workday now enhances Cell Explorer functionality within Adaptive Planning dashboards and reports to support multilevel and multidimension coordinate selections in filters. This enables you to drill into contributing account, level, and dimension details from aggregated data when multiselect is enabled in these areas.

Business Benefits

This provides you with:
  • Rapid root cause analysis and exception reporting. You can now quickly identify the underlying data that contributes to aggregated numbers, which accelerates problem-solving.
  • Improved data exploration flexibility and granularity. Perform more nuanced and precise analysis by easily exploring custom rollups.
  • Reduced manual effort and human error. This feature eliminates the need for manual data exports, pivot tables, or running multiple reports to understand aggregated details. Additionally, it provides guided selections that prevent incorrect data filtering.

Changes

On dashboards and reports, we now enable you to use Cell Explorer when you select multiple values on your dimension and level filters. These values can be any combination of:
  • Dimension values on different dimensions.
  • Dimension values on different hierarchy levels within a dimension.
  • Dimension values on the same hierarchy level within a dimension.
  • Level values on different hierarchy levels.
  • Level values on the same hierarchy level.
When you select multiple level and dimension values on your dimension filters and use Cell Explorer, we now:
  • Display all dimensions, including cube dimensions and other dimensions, in the
    Dimensions
     section and all attributes in the
    Filters
     section.
  • Display new
    Rolls up to
     links in the
    Account
     and
    Time
     sections if the parent account exists and you have permission to access that data.
  • Display new
    Show All
     and
    Hide All
     links so you can control whether you see all the values for a level or dimension. We only display these links when you select 5 or more values in a level or dimension.
  • Hide the
    Suppress rows if all zeros or blank
     check box on the Cell Explorer because we suppress by default for multiselect. We continue to display this check box if you select 1 level or dimension value and use Cell Explorer.
  • Rename the
    Level
     section to Levels.
