Filtering out blank fields
Some of you have noticed that the Chart displayed in “Customer Order - Summary” contained a series label called Series 1.
Well the reason for that being shown is because we have missed to filter out all customer with have no data in the field: Chart_SalesOrderAmountLCY.Value
So how is that actually done? Well let me show you:
1. Design Report 70000
2. Select “View / Layout”
3. Right click the chart in the bottom of the report
4. Select “Filters” tab
5. Type the follow:
Expression:
=System.String.IsNullOrEmpty(Fields!Chart_SalesOrderAmountLCY.Value)Operator:
=Value:
=False
6. With this filter we now filter out where "Chart_SalesOrderAmountLCY.Value” is equal blank.
7. Now save and compile the report and display in RoleTailored client. Now only customers with outstanding orders are shown in the chart.
I have updated the demo reports package to reflect this change.
The reports can be downloaded from here.
