Depending on the column type (see below), you can define the column header by selecting the following variables from the list:

 

<<Data stream>> inserts the name of the data stream or analysis row with the organisation specified

<<Data stream abbreviated>> inserts the name of the data stream or analysis row with the organisation specified, abbreviated

<<Time span>> active time span (e.g. "January - December 2019")

<<Organisation>> displays the selected organisation

 

Please note:

For all column types, you can enter any text or a combination of text and variables as the column header.

 

 

Currencies

If more than one currency has been defined for the underlying data source, you can display the values of each column in one of the available currencies.

 

 

Please note:

All global options refer to the organisation and time span settings defined for the table. To make an individual selection, turn off the "Global" switch and select the desired reference for the column.

 

Column type: Data stream

Data stream columns display the values of the selected organisation and data stream for the selected time span. Under Display mode you can specify whether the values should be displayed as numbers, bars or a combination of the two. If you wish, you can also define a time shift.
