Automatic field selection

Hi all,

I have the following problem.

I have a data report , when I select there a specific field value, there is another field which is selected  automatically too.

I don't want this additional field to be selected because , when I add values to my first selection the unwilled automatic selection limits the results.

What do I have to do in order to stop the unwilled automatic selection?

For example in the file attached, I chose Seat RA, I did not choose PPublisherName, so why is it chosen anyway?

Thanks ,

Inna

Hi,

In tab Heavy analysis you have expressions - Impressions,Clicks etc.,

So in Sum expressions I put for example, Sum({$<PPublisherName=>} BuyerImpressions) instead of sum(BuyerImpressions) and so on.

Would appreciate very much if you could help me.

Thanks,

Inna.

Inna, you are using a Calculated Dimension in your Cyclic Group based on the Publisher Name, that is the reason we get some selections on the PPublisherName field.

Hi, I understand.

Can I leave this calculation and avoid the situation, or I need another solution for the calculation?

You could create the field on the script using the if statement you have and then use the field you created in the cyclic group.
