About Creating Subregions

Subregions enable you to create a parent/child relationship between two regions. A subregion displays inside of a parent region. You can specify a Parent Region when you initially create the region, or when editing region attributes. See "Creating a Region" and "Editing Regions".

You can use this feature in a variety of ways. One use case would be to use subregions to group information. For example, suppose you have a region with a border. You can use this feature to display two classic reports (or subregions) within it. You can also use subregions to display regions as tabs or as an accordion. You control how parent and subregions display by editing the Sub Region attributes of the region template. To learn more, see "Region Templates".
