For example, you can specify that certain programs are valid only for specific departments. Leverage valid intersections to control data entry only to valid intersections. For form design, if the dimensions that are set in the valid intersection are found on the Page, the user will be presented only with valid combinations in the member selector. If the dimensions that are set with valid intersections are found on the column or row, the form designer can suppress invalid intersections completely. When the suppression option isn't selected, invalid intersections are set to read only. C: Administrators can create right-click (or action) menus and associate them with forms, enabling users to click rows or columns in forms and select menu items. D: You can define user variables to help planners focus on particular members, such as their department's expenses. For example, you can create a form with entities on the rows, and a user variable called Department. You can limit the number of rows displayed on the form by selecting a member for the Department user variable, such as Sales. Later, you can select another value for Department, such as Marketing.
