Filtering out data in a Dimension

[#1]

Hey guys,

I'm currently trying to make some charts where the only dimension is selected Account Numbers. For example, without even filtering any data I want to display a bar chart which continually shows 5 out of the 100 Account Numbers.

I've managed to do that so far with If statements:

If([Account Code] = 'value', 'value',

If([Account Code] = 'value', 'value',

If([Account Code] = 'value', 'value',

If([Account Code] = 'value','value',

If([Account Code] = 'value', 'value',

0)))))

Which is working well, however my problem is that I want to exclude any data that goes into the '0' so on my bar chart the 0 doesn't even appear, and instead it's only the 5 Account Numbers.

Hope you guys can help!

Hi James,

Try like this

If(Match([Account Code],  'value', 'value', 'value', 'value', 'value'), 'value')

Now in Dimension tab click on this dimension and select 'Suppress when value is Null' option.

Hope it helps you.

Regards,

Jagan.

Hey Jagan,

Thanks for the reply, but it's not quite what I'm looking for. It's very close though.

I want each of the account codes to be displayed in sperate columns, not as one columnn.

However that does remove the 0 and I can use that expression for something else I've been trying to do so thanks so much!

Ok just figured out all I had to do was remove the 0 at the end of the if statement and then remove null values in the dimension.

Hi James,

Yes, I removed the 0 in the If statement, then 0 won't be displayed in the dimension value.

Sorry I should have given credit to you, I figured it out after looking at your expression.

And you helped me with a seperate problem so thankyou!
