Create Paramter Column

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The parameter column can be used as a dimension, or it can be used as a measure, but it is stored under the measure after it is created. Parameter columns refer to parameter components such as list parameters, drop-down parameters, and text parameters. Bind different columns or perform column filtering by selecting different values for parameter components. For example, the pull-down parameter component is bound with two columns: SALES and PROFIT. You can bind the SALES and PROFIT by filtering. You can also filter out the data by selecting a null value
