Please refer to the General Ledger User's Guide, Financial Reporting, FSG Tasks, Defining Content Sets, which says:
"By assigning a content set to a report request, you can generate hundreds of similar reports in a single run. The content set controls how the numerous reports differ from each other. For example, assume your organization has 50 departments and that Department is one of your account segments. Also assume that you already have an FSG report for travel expenses, which you run weekly. By using a content set with your existing report definition, you can print a travel expense report for each department, in one report request. You can then distribute the reports to the 50 department managers for review purposes."
The detailed instructions are too long to include here, but you would use the Display Type "PE" to produce the 50 reports in the example above.
If you don't have a copy of the General Ledger User's Guide, it can be downloaded, with all of the other Applications Documentation from http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/applications.html
