In this session, we will look at how Munis Financial data can be easily sliced and organized to build meaningful reports via PivotTable reporting in Excel. This session will focus on using the data that is found in the Financial Excel Cubes. If you prefer a printed copy of the lab documentation to work with at Connect, be sure to print session documentation beforehand and bring it to Connect with you for use during the lab. Objective: Register for this Advanced session to learn advanced techniques for formatting reports and gain an understanding of how to create reports in Excel using Munis Financial cubes.

FINANCIAL CUBES BY MUNIS VERSION 9.3/10.1 GL Revenue and Expense Cube Accounts Payable Cube Work Orders Cube 10.2 10.4 Project Accounting Cube Purchase Order Cube 10.5 / 11.0 GL Assets and Liabilities Cube Grants Cube 11.1
Budget Projection Cube Fixed Assets Cube Inventory Cube 11.3/2018.1 State Reporting Cube 2017.1 Contracts Cube NOTE/TIP: See the Appendix for more information on the contents of each cube. CONNECTING TO A CUBE 1. Click the Data tab and select Existing Connections. Excel Data tab 2
2. To follow along with the examples in this document, select the GL Assets and Liabilities Cube from the list. REPORTING ON CUBES Excel presents the cube data as a pivot table allowing the user to choose the measures and dimensions from a field list to include in their pivot table report. The measures are listed first, followed by folders of fields for each dimension. The folders and fields are listed in alphabetical order. Names of data fields should be in familiar terms used in the Munis application eliminating the need for a data dictionary or translation document. Below the field list is a Report Layout section that allows the user to drag a field into a section or from one section to another to reorganize a report. 3
PivotTable report MOVING THE PIVOT TABLE By default, the PivotTables are placed in column Row 1 Column A. Move the PivotTable using the Move PivotTable button on the ANALYZE Tab. This will provide room for slicers and/or report titles. 4

The measures are added to the PivotTable area. b. At this point, the values displayed are for all data contained in the cube. We can add time and/or account fields to the PivotTable to further break down the amount. PivotTable report with Amounts added NOTE/TIP: When working with the General Ledger Assets & Liabilities Cube Connect, there may be instances when data does not come into the cube. In the instance above, we are working in FY2018 but have not closed FY2017, so starting balances cannot be populated. 6
2. Next scroll down in the field list and click open More Fields folder in the Account Folder and select Account Type and Object. Field list. Select Account Type and Object Code from within the Account<More Fields option. PivotTable report with Account Type and Object code selected 7
3. Right-click the General Fund and select Expand/Collapse and the Collapse Entire Field. Select Collapse Entire Field Result from selecting collapse entire field 8
FILTERING THE DATA Add a Slicer for additional filtering options. a. Click the Insert Slicer button on the ANALYZE tab. b. Select Fund from the More Fields folder for Account. c. Select d. Select Period from the More Fields folder for GLFY Time. 9
e. The slicer is added. It allows a user to select values that are present in the data opposed to all values like the column or row drop down. You can multi-select using ctrl-click or shiftclick. f. You can easily clear the filter clicking the filter button in the corner. A red x will appear when the filter is used. g. Move the slicers into the space we made in column A and size appropriately. SLICER TOOLS & OPTIONS 1. Click the Fiscal Year slicer to select it. SLICER TOOLS appear when you are in the slicer. Click the OPTIONS tab. Click the Slicer Settings button.

Other formatting options such as number format and font are available by right-clicking the PivotTable. ADDING CALCULATIONS After review the report, we decide it s not exactly what we wanted. We need to also see the Total Liabilities + Fund Balance so that we can easily see if our funds are in balance. 1. Click OLAP Tools on the ANALYZE tab and select MDX Calculated Member. 2. Add the name Total Liabilities + Fund Balance to your Calculated Member 3. We want to make sure that when we choose our members, we are selected the same members that are selected in our cubes report 4. In the Parent Hierarchy field, select [Account].[Account Type] from the drop down. 1
5. Select More Fields under Account, from there we select Account Type, then click members to expand the list. 6.

APPENDIX How Munis Data gets into the Cube SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) moves and transforms data from Munis. This is done in two stages. First data that is needed to create the cube is moved from the Munis database to TylerStagingDB. The data in the staging database is then transformed into a star-schema database that is called TylerReportingDB. SQL Analysis Services (SSAS) is used to create the Cube from the star schema database. Jobs are usually scheduled once per night or week to update the databases and generate the Cube, but can be more frequent depending on the client requirements and servers. The data in the cube is not real time data and is as current as the last time the job was run. Why use Cubes Data is named in familiar terms, and is grouped and organized for ease of use. Any user can immediately see the result of their selection, unlike a traditional report writer where they need to execute the report and then return to their report designer. The design and execution occur simultaneously. Data populates the spreadsheet and/or chart quickly as it has been effectively pre-organized and summarized in the cube. Users don t need to know complicated formulas or formatting such as join or other database programming terms everything is done seamlessly for them. When users execute a report, there is no impact on users performing transactions in the system. Cube Security General Ledger cubes use the GL Account level role permissions from Munis as specified for the GL Account Inquiry (glactinq) program for Org, Object, and Project in Munis Versions 9.3 through 10.4. Starting with Munis Version 10.5, the GL cubes use all permissions specified for the GL Account Inquiry (glactinq) program. Users also must have access to the Tyler Reporting Services views for GL. Any changes to Munis security will not take effect in the cube until the next time the cube jobs run. 2
In addition to this, users must be granted access to the cube using the Access Role in the cube database. This is done as part of the installation of cubes at a customer site. The installation team usually adds the munisusers or munisreports group to the Access Role. To modify this or add additional groups or users to the Access Role: 1. Open SSMS and connect to the Analysis Services server. 2. Expand the database for the Cube. 3. Expand the Roles folder. 4. Double-click the Access Role. 5. Add the necessary users and/or groups on the Membership Tab. There is no additional Munis security used for Accounts Payable, Work Orders, or Project Accounting. Once the user is granted access to the cube, they have full access to all the data in these cubes. 2
