How to Use Column Selector View in Reports

Hi all,
Can someone please advise on how to use the column selector view in CROMD's reporting tool?
Whenever I add a Column Selector view, and check the Enable checkbox of a certain column, a message appears "Click the columns in the selection pane to add more choices". However there is no selection pane, and the only thing I can do within the column is input a column label.
Am I missing any crucial steps here?
Thanks.

Hi,
Choose a column as column selector by enabling the check box and click the columns that has to get into column selector in the left navigation.
On click the columns would get in one by one. After that field that you choose would be displayed in the position of the column in the report table
Typically the purpose is something like this. If you want to dynamically change the first field say by Account Type, Account Region, Account Status and see the revenue then it can be used

    hi kris,
    Can we use a view selector and column selector inside a report in one section of the dashboard?Here view selector is nothing but having multiple views and selecting depends on what end user want to see.You are saying in a single report in once section only.
    If it is a single report you can go with using a column selector.
    Note:-View selector and column selector combination can be used.....but it looks wierd as you need to select view at the same time the corresponding column.
    UPDATED POST
    Yes you can have it by creating different compound layouts with pivots in it.

  • Calculated column of a request from Column Selector View.

    hi,
    A user wants to select the calculated column of a request from Column Selector View.
    But he is able to select only those columns which are available in Selection Pane.
    How can he fulfill this request

    Hi,
    Take a column in your request criteria and change the name of the column and forumala to f(x)=qty* amount which is your calculated column and using column selector use this column as your user wish too.
    UPDATED POST
    I dont know how your proceeding,the solution i gave will definately work .Here are the steps
    1)pull a column into the request criteria
    2)rename the name of the column
    3)go to formula in f(x) change according to your requirement for example:- quantity*unitprice
    4) run the report and in results you would see the column.
    5)From compound layout select column selector and see what you want is getting displayed.
    Hope helps you.Award points.

  • How to use advanced tab in user reports?

    Hi,
    How to use "advanced" tab in user reports?
    I have two reports. I fill "Report ID" in both and then I can push "Add Report" and fill fields property.
    Then I'm can "drill" from one report to another on right click, but how to pass parameters?
    Is it even possible?
    Regard
    Libor

    Thank you for reply.
    I can't get it working.
    I have two reports:
    1. report:
    Name: test
    SQL: select 1 NUM, 'text' TEXT from dual;
    On advanced tab:
    ReportID: -null-
    Name: test2
    Report: Test2
    2. report
    Name: test2
    SQL: select :NUM from dual;
    Now, when I run the first report and click do right click on a row and select TEST2
    from popup menu, it navigates to the second report test2, but WITHOUT actual value
    from NUM column from first report.
    I'm using latest version of SQL Developer (1.1.1.25) and I like reports.
    With this feature it would be even better.
    Regards

  • Re: [SunONE-JATO] Re: How to use a tiled view without a model

    I'm not sure what is different for you now. You still parse the string
    and put it into a data structure. Before the data structure was a
    vector, in JATO its just a model with a "hidden" data structure (a hash
    map).
    MVC only really comes into play when you talk about where your write
    this code, and where the data structure is being stored. So really, JATO
    takes care of half of the MVC'ness of it all (where the data is store).
    You just decide where to be the code to populate the model.
    Make sense?
    Is there something different required of you in JATO in this scenario
    that I am not grasping?

    Thanks for the feedback.
    The problem I was solving involved a single string, which contained
    delimited subsets of information.
    The string looked like
    this:"time|analyst|description|time|analyst|description|..."
    In ND, I parsed it apart into it's components (time vector, analyst vector,
    description vector), populated the repeated.
    With JATO, how would I make a model for something that doesn't have a
    database component like this?
    I'm pretty new to this MVC thing, so bear with me.

    Subject: Re: [SunONE-JATO] Re: How to use a tiled view without a model
    I guess the only thing "weird" (for lack of a better term) about what
    you are doing is that your are populating the model on the "display
    cycle". Typically, the cycle goes like this:
    Request -> populate model -> update data store -> retrieve data to
    populate model -> display data
    some of the above steps are optional but hopefully you get the point I
    am making.
    So what you are doing is:
    Request -> populate model/display data
    If it works for you, then it's not necessarilly wrong. But I would
    probably have my model populated before I forwarded to the target
    (displaying view bean) or at a minimum, in the begin display event of
    the view bean or the tiled view, but not during the iteration of the
    tiled view.

    Check out the docs for DefaultModel. There is an appendRow() method.
    So get your tiledview's primary model (the tiledview's primary model
    should be set to use an instance of DefaultModel), model.appendRow(),
    then model.setValue("fieldname", value) for each value.
    Rinse, repeat as needed.

  • How to use dynamic parameter when a report is created using Stored Procedures

    Hi all,
    any one have the idea of how to use dynamic parameter in crystal report XI R2
    when report is created using Stored Procedure.
    Regards
    shashi kant chauhan

    Hi
    You can create an SQL command in Database Expert > Expand your datasource > Add command
    Then enter the SQL query that will create the list of values to supply to the user
    eg select field1,field2 from table
    Then edit the parameter of the report.  These will be the SP parameters adn can be seen in field explorer.
    Change the parameter type to Dynamic
    Under the word Value click on Click here to add item
    Scroll down to your Command and select one of the values that you want to appear in the list
    e.g field1
    Then click on the Parameters field - this is essential to create the param
    You can edit other options as required
    That should do it for you.
    I must say that i use CR 2008 connected to Oracle 10g SP, but i reckon this will work for SQL DB and CR XI as well
    Best of luck

  • How to use column with linkToItem in the Basic Table view style mode

    Hi
    I have already changed a normal column that I made to a column with linkToItem as follows.
    <viewfields>
    <FieldRef Name="MyColumn" linkToItem="TRUE">
    and it worked.
    But this column works only at the default view style mode in my case.
    Does anyone know how to use linkedToItem column in the Basic Table mode?
    hope someone help me.
    thanks

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to use linkToItem in the Basic Table view style.
    Per my test, in the Default style view, we need to use linkToItem=”TRUE”. However, in Basic Table style view, we need to use LinkToItem=”TRUE” instead.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

    Thanx in advanceArrggh. I wish people wouldn't just answer a question without taking the time to actually think about what the user is asking for and if it makes sense. I like Diney's response best: Why not use the Title View? (i.e., asking questions until it is clear what is needed.) So along those lines, why are you trying to put the name of your report in a column of your report?? And why do you need to use direct sql to do this??
    Kindly or not, urgent or not, state what you are trying to achieve and why you need it (if the obvious answer like "using the Title View" doesn't work for you), instead of simply assuming your method is right and you need to know how to do what envision. Your method may not be correct or necessary.

  • How to use lexical paramter in oracle reports

    I have a query like,
    select * from t1 where &c1=:v_srep;
    where t1 is tablename
    c1 is column name
    How do I create &c1 and how should I populate it ?
    Thanks,

    From Oracle 8.1.5 database, we can use dynamic ref cursors.
    With dynamic ref cursor we can really avoid the use of lexical parameters in Reports.
    With static ref cursor this is not possible in all cases.
    For example, if we need dynamic WHERE, we practically can't use static ref cursor.
    But, problem is that Reports needs static ref cursor type for building Report Layout.
    Solution (as i know, first published in my post in MetaLink Reports Forum,
    thread "Report based on Ref Cursor or PL/SQL Table", 24-Aug-01) is:
    in package specification we must have both ref cursor types,
    static for Report Layout and dynamic for ref cursor query.
    Dynamic ref cursor examples:

  • OBIEE10G - Using column value in another report

    Let's say i have a very simple report (A) with just one column A1 that has a value X.
    Then i have another report (B) where i want to use that value X from report A, something like this:
    Year------Month----------Value
    2011------March-----------X
    Is this something possible to do?I've tried to use in column Value a filter base on results of another request where i get report A and column A1 (which has value X) but this doesn't work.
    Thanks

    Hey,
    It really is pretty much what i said but i'll try to explain with more detail my problem. I have a combined request where i have to do (besides other things) some calculations envolving knowing how many days and business days are in the month selected in the prompt. I can do this ok for the total of days in a month however i haven't been able to do this for the business days.
    My time dimension has an attribute that tells me if a day is a business day or not, so i can do a request where i count the number of business days for month and year prompted. That's my report A with column A which has value X (number of business days for a month).
    However, when i try to integrate this exactly same thing in my combined request the count of business days isn't working that's why i was asking if i can get into a column of report B the value of a column in report A. I would have this:
    Report B
    Year----------Month-------------Nr Business Days
    2011----------March--------------------21 (value of column A1 in report A).
    I hope i was my clear this time.
