# Step by step report creation

Adloop reporting tool is very powerful: you can combine any data type from multiples Sources, filter them, order them etc.

All reports use at least one of the following four elements:

* dimensions
* metrics
* period
* “go” button

### Step 1: Choose Dimensions

You can, using the **Dimensions Pickers** , choose the **Dimensions** from **Data Sources** you added.

Dimensions can be used either as the base of your report or as filters.
