Become Familiar with Subordinate Aggregate Object Types

Certain aggregate object occurrences in a selection list can be expanded into subordinate aggregate objects. When you expand an object occurrence, the objects that are selectable are the first level subordinates to the expanded object. The maximum number of expansions down a particular subordinate hierarchy chain depends on the aggregate object. The hierarchy of subordinates can help you navigate through the selection dialogs.

If you select an object that has subordinates, Compare Report compares the selected object and if an equivalent is found, compares the subordinates. The following table lists the aggregate objects for Compare Report that have subordinate aggregate objects:
