Parent-child relationship in a report
In the previous recipe, we created a very basic report with a list of countries. While we are in a development phase, this type of report is useful to control if the attribute forms have been created correctly. Similarly, to check the parent-child settings, you can create a quick report with two or more attributes involved in the relationships; just to be sure that every son has its father and no family is broken.

Select Add to Rows.
Do the same with Month, you'll see that the two attributes appear as columns in the Report View pane.
Run the report by selecting the View...
