Dynamic Logic for a report: User Maintained Logic

48 Views

Hi All,

I've come across a requirement that needs to build a report.

However, the set of definitions defined for the report output might change over time.

Now every time the Definitions change, the User might have to request the change in the report through a development.

Is there a way, where the Users can maintain certain set of rules and which can be maintained easily, but also allow the report to dynamically pick up the logic that it needs to process the data to the required output layout.

To explain a little more in detail;

Data from ZTABLEA is reported out by issuing each line with a BucketID.

The report will aggregate the data to each Bucket Levels in output.

But, The Logic for issuing the ZTABLEA line with a BucketID can change over time.

So, a ZTABLEA line which was issued a BucketID_1 initially when FIELD1 of ZTABLEA = A,

can later be assigned to another BucketID when FIELD1 of ZTABLEA = A.

And this assignment needs to be maintained by the Users.

Some of these Logics can be complex in the sense that they Could span over several Fields for a condition.

Please advice. Any and all suggestions are highly appreciated.

Thanks,

RK.
