Analytics Enhancements
What is an Analytics Edition?
Bucketing gives you on-the-fly segmentation and filtering
based on custom data groupings you create in your report
rather than the data model.
Cross filters help you perform sophisticated analysis and
exception reporting.
Joined reports let you create and run reports containing
data from different objects.
NOTE: Analytics Editions is only included in EE and UE.
With Bucketing:
Quickly categorize report records without creating formulas or
custom fields.
Define multiple categories (buckets) to group report values.
Sort, filter, and group your report, just like any other field.
Add up to five bucket fields per report, each with up to 20
buckets.
Additional Information about Bucketing
With Cross Filters:
Specify inclusion or exclusion of records using a WITH or
WITHOUT condition.
Apply cross filters by themselves or in combination with
field filters.
– Filter logic only applies to field filters—not cross filters.
– Create up to three cross filters per report.
– Add up to five subfilters for each cross filter.
Additional Information about Cross Filters
With Joined Reports
Easily view different types of activities and information in a
single report.
Combine data from multiple standard or custom report types
– Add report types to a joined report if they have relationships
with the same object or objects.

your data.
