Title: Conditional Styles in ReportStudio using TM1 data
Post by: mikewalker on 02 Aug 2011 04:31:36 AM
Hello

Would anyone know if it's possible to setup a conditional style on an object in ReportStudio (eg. a text item) based on the value of a TM1 data item?

In theory it should be possible but when I try to create it I get "invalid variable" or "data type" errors.

The TM1 data item appears as a measure, however the data value is actually text - so perhaps this is where Cognos is confused but I'm not sure.

Has anybody had experience with conditionally styling RS reports using TM1 data and if so would you be able to share any tips?

Cheers
