Hi there
I have a column in my database that contains freeform text where users can enter a report commentary.
I want to give them a syntax that would allow them to embed a measure universe object
Example of text in field:
The sales for August 2010 are XXXXX. These sales exceed expectations etc etc
The user will change the text from time to time.
I want the user to be able to enter a syntax in place of XXXXX that would use the universe object called 'Monthly Sales Revenue'
Any thoughts?
James
I'm not totally sure I understand your requirements, but if what you are trying to do is select a measure based on the contents of 'XXXXX', you could create an object like:
CASE WHEN right(table.freeform_column,3) = 'MSR' THEN fact_table.Monthly_Sales_Rev END
