Dynamic dimension in Containers

[#1]

Hello,

we got "bukets" for different Deal Sizes which we fill in the load script. Now my customer wants to change these bukets (or better the borders between them) with setting variables.

Has anyone an idea how this can be done? If the new dynamic dimension would only contain the values of one buket, it wouldn't be a problem, but having more of them I do not know how I can get to this.

Thanks

Peter

Hi Peter,

Supposing you have 3 variables to set the limits you can use something like:

=If([Deal Size] < $(Limit1), '<$(Limit1)',

If([Deal Size] < $(Limit2), '>=$(Limit1)<$(Limit2)',

  If([Deal Size] < $(Limit3), '>=$(Limit2)')))

If the buckets are of the same size you can create it using class function.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

but the problem is that the buckets shall be of diffrent sizes.

My first proposal will fit with different size buckets but the second link provided by Gysbert is very flexible way to achieve this requirement, if I needed to do something like this I will try to go through that link.

Yeah, the second link shows an approach that I'll customize to my needs
