Title: Dashboard filter selection question
Post by: cognos05 on 14 Aug 2017 08:41:55 AM
Hi ,

I am new user from 10.2 to cognos 11. While using dsahboard from a transformer cube package . I have the data source as Transformer cube .

when i create a dashboard with a visulaization control like chart .

When I select members the source shows the levels in the hierarchy and not the actual members on the source data panel . But when I drag the specific level to categories and use filter I see all the members there with invert and clear feature .

So say i have 50 member in this level I have to manually select / unselect to show them in the dashboard . Is there a way to write a expression here to retrieve the requried elements in Dashboard.


Thanks,
Nithya

Hi,

Currently I can't see a way to write calculations as expressions in a dashboard. I'm hoping this is something that gets added by IBM. Ditto for being able to see the member tree in the source pane.

Cheers!
