SEI Formula Drill Down

The SEI Excel Add-in enables you to get details about an amount calculated through an SEIFormula. This allows the user to do deeper analysis by seeing what the SEI Formula result is actually consists of in terms of raw data.

Example

Here is an illustration of the report with SEI Formulas generated from the General Ledger (GL) entries that contribute to the total Debit Amount of a GL Account.

To drill-down on the selected amount:

  1. Either right-click on the cell containing the amount and choose Formula Drill Down in the menu OR while the cell is selected, click on Formula Drill Down in the Excel Add-in tab.  
  2. Choose if All fields should be brought back or only Specific ones.
  3. If specific, the following screen will appear to select and place the columns in a particular order.
Tip

Tick the Default Drill Down checkbox to access Formula details directly, without getting a pop-up window.

Note

The result of the drill-down is shown in a separate sheet of the Excel workbook.
