Skip If using calculations
Skip_If example using calculations
There are a number of ways you can do this.
In this example, we have one attribute, skip1 which is set to inactive for components, or sub-components we do not want to include in the report.
Another attribute, skip2, is set using a calculation string. If the calculation is true then the component is skipped for the report.
Note the highlighted sections of the Attribute Settings below:
- skip1
- - is a Text attribute. It can be set to inactive using the attribute editor.
- skip2
- - is a Boolean attribute. If its value is true then the component will be skipped for the report.
- - has Skip_If checked.
- - has a ruby calculation string '%skip1%' == 'inactive'
- %skip1% is replaced by the value of the attribute skip1
- Note: for skip_if to work properly, the attribute for it has to be marked as include in report.
- (You can also mark suppress to suppress it from display in the report.)
