# Adding Business Dimensions to reports

You can add a cost center selector to your reports to easily filter and analyse data per business dimension.

The selector is configured in the **Report Configuration** screen, which you can access by clicking the **gear icon** in the top-right corner of the report.

Within the Report Configuration:

* Go to the **Context** settings
* Change the **Cost Center** option from **Default** to **Use picker**
* Save the report configuration

Once saved, a cost center selector will appear at the top of the report.

You can now:

* Select a specific cost center
* Instantly view the report data for that selection

The report will automatically update based on the chosen cost center, allowing you to analyse performance per dimension without changing the underlying report structure.
