Multiple Dimensions columns in Adobe Workspace

It would be great to be able to have multiple dimension columns rather than having the information stacked. Currently whenever you breakdown dimensions it stacks this on a line by line basis which makes it harder to analyse and also looks messy for the end user.

it's now 2023. This is sort of a table stakes feature for an analysis tool - see Excel, Tableau, etc. Why can't I do this yet in Adobe Analytics - or is it just very unobvious how to do it?

Hi David, I had the same problem of reporting. I have a solution. Mine was a tag that took 4 parameters; here is a generic one from the old Coremetrics:  cm_mmc=vendor-_-category-_-placement-_-item. I needed to be able to show this in multiple ways to different people and as you already know you can't "breakdown" hundreds of rows one row at a time. I asked for 7 evars to be created and they look like this:

evar 1 = vendor

evar 2 = category

evar 3 = placement

evar 4 = item

evar 5 = vendor-_-category

evar 6 = vendor-_-category-_-placement

evar 7 = vendor-_-category-_-placement-_-item

I now have the ability to create reports based on how many "dimensions" I need stuffed into an evar. I can then use filters to say "starts with", "equals", "contains phrase", "does not contain phrase", etc....

Hope this helps you!

Yeah, we just made the move from Google Analytics to Adobe and this is one feature I am already missing. We have all kinds of reports that line up 2 or more dimensions in GA. I can't recreate any of them here. Not sure how I'm going to get these reports for my stakeholders now.

Bumping this... any updates at all? Is pretty essentially, especially to export onto an excel doc

The fact that Coremetrics could do this (since pre 2004) but Adobe cannot is pretty scary

Would also like to see this, it feels like a basic requirement but I guess a little complex on the Workspace side.
