The correct answer to the question is A. Row definition.
In Report Designer, a financial report is made up of several components, including row definition, column definition, reporting tree definition, and report definition. Each component has a specific purpose and functionality in creating and configuring the report.
The row definition component is used to define the rows of the report and specify the accounts, financial dimensions, and other criteria that determine the content of each row. The row definition also specifies the period to use when data is extracted from the financial dimensions.
Column definition, on the other hand, is used to define the columns of the report and specify the data elements to be displayed in each column. Reporting tree definition is used to group and summarize the data in the report based on specific criteria such as departments or regions. Finally, report definition is used to define the overall layout, formatting, and presentation of the report.
Therefore, in order to configure a custom financial report in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance using Report Designer, you will need to use the row definition component to define the rows and specify the period to use when data is extracted from the financial dimensions.
