XML Report - Conditionally showing a column in between other columns

I have a XML Report, with columns
A, B, C, D
Now I need to add a new column E in between B and C when certain condition is satisfied.
A, B, E, C, D
for column E, I kept <?if:column='X'?> columnname <?endif?>.
When condition is satisfied it is displaying column and also values, but when not an empty column is displayed with no values, I dont want this empty column when condition is not satisfied.
It should just show A, B, C, D instead of A, B, , C, D
Request you to help me with my requirement.

Hi Kavipriya, thanks for response.
I tried below condition for that column:
<?if@column:OM_Due_Date_X='Y'?> <?OM_Due_Date_L?> <?end if?>
I am setting OM_Due_Date_X in sql package to 'Y' if customer is 'Rob' else it will be 'N'.
If 'Y', then I am displaying a column name OM Due Date which is <"OM_Due_Date_L?>
Now for Column values it is just <?OM_Due_Date?>
Do I need to change anything here ?

XL Reporter & Conditional Formatting

I am building my Income Statement / P&L in XL Reporter, and I want to draw attention to any items out of the ordinary. I have each period in two columns, the 1st column being the actual amount and the 2nd being the % of revenues. I want to do conditional formatting on only the second column, so if it is off the average % of revenues, I'll notice it. The problem is that when multiple periods are expanded, Excel applies the conditional formatting to both columns. How do I eliminate that and only apply to one of the two expanding columns?

I'm using Excel 2007 and here is my basic table layout:
C column - $ figures
D column - % of revenue
(these two columns are repeated for the selected number of periods)
E (or whatever column it ends up being) - sum of $ figures
F (or whatever column it ends up being) - average of % of revenue
F1 - The percentage difference from the average that I want highlighted
The conditional formatting that I have set up is applied to column D (and should be applied to the new F, H, etc):
= D4<($F4*(1-$F$1))
Another problem I have run into with this is that it keeps the $F column as $F, regardless of how many periods are included. I can't leave it without an absolute reference because then each period refers to a different column for the average. The easiest solution I've thought of is putting my sums on the left, but I'd rather not do that.

Conditional formatting in the chart does not work after 10g to 11g upgrade

W e have upgraded from 10g to 11.1.1.6.8 recently. For all the reports conditional formatting for charts is not working for us which used to work in 10g.
While researching , i have found that advanced xml needs to be modified. So i changed xml where there is 'untypedLiteral' to 'decimal' and saved the report. Inspite of saving , xml wouldnt change . It still shows as untypedLiteral.
I also tried to delete the conditional format and recreate again. But still it wouldn't work.
Please advise.

Issue with conditional formatting in XML publisher report

Hi All,
I am working on a XML report where in I am required to use conditional formatting to highlight changes, if there is change in any of the column value. The condition is required to be implemented on a text column as well as a number column. I have tried to use the conditional formatting available in the BI Publisher Release 10.1.3.2, wherein I have compared the two columns, and when they are not equal to, then formatting should change to red color; but the same is not working in the excel output.
Can anybody help here?
Thanks,

Report generation toolkit conditional format - how to?

Hi
We are using the Report generation toolkit (2010 version), and have a question regarding this tool.
I see functions for setting the number format, but not a conditional format. Does this not exist?
http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/372120A-01/lvoffice/excel_set_cell_format/
This page refers to an example which from the name sets a conditional format. However as I understand it, this example is setting a custom number, not a conditional format.

Hi,
the simplest way to do this I guess you can provide a template for your Excel sheet, where you can set the conditional format there.
From LabVIEW you can just send the values into this sheet-template.
Maybe you can try these if you want

Conditional Formatting with multiple characteristics in report designer

Hi,
I'm trying to build a report with images in conditional formatting for two characteristics (=columns). Each of which can have one of the following three status values:
1 - green
2 - yellow
3 - red
For each status value i want to show a different image (traffic light). It works fine with only one characteristic. The conditional formatting creates three details rows in the row pattern (one for each status value) and depending on the status value the corresponding details row with the traffic light is shown.
But if there is more than one characteristic with conditional formatting in the report it only works with a different row for each characteristic value, as the two characteristics belong to different group levels of the row pattern. That means I finally have 2 rows showing the two status values.
To show them all in one row, which is the goal, I have put all the conditional formatting definitions (6=3 for each characteristic) into the detail rows of the row pattern.
But then for one characteristic incorrect images are shown, e.g. although the status value is red, a green traffic light is displayed, because the status value of the other characteristic is green.
Obviously the conditional formatting only works with the characteristic, for which the details rows in the row pattern have been created.
Any ideas how I can manage to show all the conditional images in one row?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sven

Sven,
your scenario is not supported yet.
Right now, a conditional format is based on one condition.
In the future it is planned to allow more conditions to be applied to the rowpattern, using "AND, OR" operators.
The availability of the feature will be announced via the BI Functional Enhancement List (see BIFAQ)

Does Conditional Formatting does not work in HTML report editor - BO 4.1

Hi
I have just upgraded to BO 4.1 from BOXI 3.1
I see conditional formatting option is grayed out for me in BO 4.1
I dont have java installed and running launchad on HTML (Preference ->WEBI-> Modify Report -> HTML )
Is there any relation between Applet option and Conditional formatting or is there anything wrong with Access which i need to correcr explicitly as compared to BO 3.1 ?

Hi Saurav,
This is expected behavior; We can modify the Conditional formatting only though Applet mode or using Webi Rich Client.

Conditional formating in report painter (GRR2)

Hi all,
An end user ask me if it's possible to do a conditional formatting in a cell of report painter (run with GRR3) if the value is true (i.e. as in excel, you can colour a cell if it's less than zero and so on). I know that it's possible with the BEx (for SAP BI), xcelsius, crystal reports and surely with bussiness object. I can see that it's only available do the format for the all column or for a line, but I don't find the option for a cell with a condition (surely because it isn't available).
Please, confirm me if it is not available, because I'm a long time looking for a reply but I only find info about BEx, xcelsius and so on (nothing related with report painter, GRR2 and so on). But if it's possible, please let me know how to do it.
Thanks in advance
Best regards,
Eduardo

Hi,
I don't think that we can put the conditional formula. but we can do the calcualtion by row wise or column wise.
Thanks.

Conditional formatting in report designer.

Hi All !
What is conditional formatting & how to do it ?
does it act like condition which we do in BEX query designer ?
Can we restrict values using this at the report designer level ?
Regards
Tom.

Hi,
Conditional Formatting: You use this function to set a design that deviates from the design for selected characteristic values, hierarchy nodes, and so on, that is set by the default row patterns.
Conditional formatting can only be applied to characteristic values in dynamic sections of a data provider. A query (or query view) with one or more characteristics in the drilldown forms the basis of a data provider with a dynamic section.

XML Report in text format

Hi,
Can any one help how to create a XML report so that i should be saved in text format OR is there any way where when you click on view output a dialog box with open, save and cancel option appears so that i can save the output in required format.
Thanks,
Dinesh..

Hi Dinesh,
Can any one help how to create a XML report so that i should be saved in text format
While defining the respective concurrent program set the output to 'TEXT'. You can do this by:
Sysadmin > Concurrent > Program > Define ; and the select or define the program that you want the output to as TEXT
In the OUTPUT field ensure to have the type as 'TEXT'.
is there any way where when you click on view output a dialog box with open, save and cancel option appears so that i can save the output in required format.
Alternative to the above, while submitting the request after selecting your desired concurrent request , click on Option and change the output type.
Hope this Helps!
Thanks &

Graphic/Image not displayed with conditional formatting in Report Designer

We are facing problems with displaying an image in a conditional formatting in the Report Designer. The image itself is in the mime repository and can be displayed in the report if no conditional formatting is used. But if it is used the image doesn't appear in the report.
Backend setup: SP 8
Frontend setup: Patch 8, hotfix 2, Revision 95
Any help is highly appreciated.
Sven

Hi,
I could not reproduce your problem in internal SP8 system. Also images in rows with conditional formatting are displayed.
Do you get any errors after the execution in the portal?
Try to use exactly the same image in both rows (drag-and-drop with CTRL key pressed).
If then your problem still occurs, open a customer message. Describe your problem in detail and write technical name of the report you used.
