This KB article explains the order that reports getting executed in Strategy Office 9.2.x and above when different rank number are assigned to each of the reports.
- Rank 0 is an unordered report. This is the default rank for a report. Reports that are not assigned a rank are run in the order in which they appear in the workbook, presentation, or Word document.
- Ranks greater than 0 are executed before unordered reports. Reports are executed in ascending order. For example, a report ranked 1 is executed before a report ranked 3.
- Ranks less than 0 are executed after unordered reports. Lower (absolute value) ranks are executed before higher (absolute value) ranks. For example, a report ranked -1 (absolute value 1) is executed before a report ranked -4 (absolute value 4).

In the following example, reports with Rank 1 are getting executed first:
