One variable dependent on other variable

raghavsurya — Thu, 19 May 2011 06:48:19 GMT

Hi All,

I have a set of data consisting of brands and their products. We are doing a sales projections under what-if scenarios in which the user will be able to alter the sales % of few brands/products and the what-if values do change only for those brands/products. For Example

Brand Product

Samsung 21' TV

Samsung 29" TV

Samsung 42" TV

Samsung Automatic Washing Machine

LG 21' LCD TV

LG 29" LED TV

LG 42" LED TV

LG Automatic Top Open Washing Machine

The requirement is we have defined a variable for Brand and another variable for Product. We have provided input boxes with dropdown of Brand and Products as well. If the user selects Samsung in the First input box (variable as Brand) the Product variable should display only products related Brand selected in first input box.

Can anybody suggest how to build the dependency between two variables.

Regards,

Raghav

Hi Raghav,

You can use the Multibox instead of the drop down input box.

You can also set the variable with selected value of ur multibox.

Hope this will help you

Hi Kaushik,

Thanks for your reply.

The sales projections are to be changed only for the Brand/product we select... multibox solution does not help us.

Is this what you are attempting to do?

Have a look at the two variables I've created on Sheet 1.

Then have a look at the document properties | triggers for what I do with these variables.

Hope this helps
