Hi all,

I have been asked to achieve a very tricky requested. Let me start by explaining high-level what needs to be achieved:

We have a dimension that is identified by a 6-digit number. This dimension is subject to change quite often: records are added and deleted (set to inactive) on the daily.
We need to run reports per this dimension. So for each line in the dimension table a report should be generated. I can't use reportviews since the dimension is changing, that would mean updating the RV's constantly.

We had a brief look at using bursting as an option but got stuck rather quickly.

Should we resort to 3rd party apps? or are there any other solutions?

Thanks for taking the time to look at our problem!

BR,

O.
