Combining items in domains

This topic provides guidelines about how to combine items in domains to create a useful report.

To create a useful report, you need at least two reporting objects: one measure and one dimension or one attribute. Avoid combining summary level query items with the detail level query items in a single report. For example, in the following figure, the number of servers on which a Compliance Job was run is counted twice for both servers. Therefore, a single report that combines the measure, Servers Attempted (summary-level query item) with the dimension, Server Name (detail-level query item) is not useful. For information about reporting objects, see Understanding-reports-report-packages-and-reporting-objects.
