@Selection on Blocks

Ian Bradley

One of the major issues we have with trend based dataviews and charts is having to use CY, CY-1, etc for current year and current year -1. This is very annoying to end users and causes us to "hard code" the years into the block header, meaning all reports must be updated each year, month etc. when we use block references or time based functions.

It would be better if we could use @ selection year, etc to dynamically display the selection in the block header.

I've seen this comment from other users on the community asking if it can be done, or for alternative solutions.

Just a suggestion that @Selection (Entity) to be used on blocks should return the entity member name or code.
