Report structure issue

EPM 10 SP15

I have a requirement to build a asymmetric column axis and dynamic row expansion input form to be done. If i can do this, that would avoid unnecessary building the same structure with 7 different reports to construct the asymmetric columns. But i am facing an issue that the rows not expanding.

Based on Vadim static report blog i am convinced that we can have a static asymmetric col axis and have a dynamic row axis but looks like in my report build it is not expanding on the row.

Here is what i did

1) Build the column axis as below resulting in EPMOlapMemberO cells referring to other excel cells. Basically I wanted to show i have a asymmetric column axis need.

ACTUAL        PLAN           PLAN            ACTUAL

PROD1         PROD2        PROD1          PROD3

2013.JAN      2013.FEB     2013.JAN       2014.JAN

2)  Row axis should expand based on parent node like

Customer Group

---Customer 1

---Customer 2

---Customer 3

3) Of course i need some page axis overrides

What i did:

By enabling member recognition i created the col axis cells referring to the cells i already constructed manually

I manually entered a dummy member in row axis cell with member recognition on

It automatically recognized col and rows and created a default report

So far so good.

Now i went to row axis selection and made the member selection to Customer Group (member & children selection).

Then i refreshed the report assuming it would expand on row  but it didn't do anything

Am i doing something wrong?  Is it possible to have a static col axis with dynamic row axis?

I also want to ask if this is a safe approach to build a report with static col axis and dynamic row axis. Would it prevent me from inserting local members in col axis later?

Any help is appreciated..
