To display the selection screen variant name in WAD report output.

Hello experts,

I have a requirement which is to display the selection screen variant description in the output of the WAD report.

I managed halfway, by using the object "Information field", which displays all the values which are selected by the variant.

Example:I have created a cost center report created using WAD, since I need some graphical displays..

In the selection screen, I have the characteristic "cost center" as input field. I have created a variant " GM - IT" which will include few cost centers managed by GM. In the output, I want the dispaly to be "Cost center - GM IT". Currently it displays "Cost Center - a,b,c,d" as the values a,b,c,d are the values from the variant name "GM-IT"

Please let me know if this required any java script. I am not familiar with java / html codes and any help would be much appreciated (and rewarded)

Thanks in advance

KS

Hi,

Try this.

If you want to include your variables in your WAD means you have to choose "Force Variable Screen" option to be in enabled condition.

TO enable this,in WAD select your Template(New Template1) click the WEBITEM , it'll shows all generic properties , here you can enable this "Force variable screen"

Save and execute your WAD now you can get your variable screen.

Thanks,

Hi Jitu,

Thanks for the reply. I would like to clarify that I am able to see the selection screen and select the values (Variants) which I have created. My issue is on the output (web report), where I want to see variants which I selected in the selection screen.

for your info, We are on BI7, SP13.

Best regards

Hello KS,

Try to use this in the Data Binding section:

In "Text Element Type" -> Variable Value

In "Variable"-> select those variables that you want to display in your report, to select the variable click the button next to drop down.

Hope this helps.

Award me points if this helps you.
