We can use variables for dynamically displaying column name.
In our project we given three dimensions in the prompt
value, user can switch to the dimension that they want to
see in the report.
Consider 3 dimensions A, B and C, Users want to see
measures in the report based on what is the dimension they
have selected in the report prompt having A, B and C
dimensions.
By using the Case Statement we can switch between the
dimensions
Create Dataitem as follows
Case
When ?p_Dimension?=A Then [A] (Directly take from
model)
When ?p_Dimension?=B Then [B] (Directly take from model)
When ?p_Dimension?=C Then [C] (Directly take from model)
End
This will automatically pick up the Dimension query item
names from the model based on User’s selection to display
as column name.
