Reporting views are how data is structured within the Analytics Module. The views are designed to make the data structure more flexible and easier for you to build reports.
Each view contains the following fields:
Dimensions
Information allowing filtering, labels, sorting, grouping
Metrics
The measures used in the system
Categories
All Dimensions and Metrics are grouped logically in Categories
Note: The data fields that appear will be differ based on the view you use, however similar dimensions, metrics and categories appear in multiple views.
See the in this section panel on the right for specific details on views and the data in them.
