Create your Flash report in Xcelsius and make sure that:

• The parameters you add to the Flash report in Xcelsius have an <entity>:<dimension:> format. These parameters are used as prompt parameters for the report.
• The report that you create to be displayed in Flash format must include a prompt with the <entity>:<dimension:> format.

This is an example of the Xcelsius report viewer with a Metric Breakdown report.
