Need help with substitution formulas

Emil Amante

How do I apply a column header to a datablock where it doesn't show the entity name?

This is the formula I put in:

@Selection _Ex(Entity="Category (Rev)",Display="Desc")

Result:

Category (Rev): FY25 Forecast (Jul)

I don't want Category (Rev): to actually show.

Hi Emil,

Thank you for your message. I understand that you are looking for confirmation on how to hide the entity name in a datablock column header while displaying only the selected value, and that you would like the explanation provided using the required two-step format.

We’ll be happy to help you with this. To proceed, I’ll need a bit more information from your side:

• Are you working within a Board Academy course?
• If not, please share the instance name / on-premise, company name, and the exact Board version, including the patch number (for example, 14.2.x.x.x.x).
• Additionally, please provide a screenshot of the screen where you are attempting to hide the entity name in the datablock column header.
• If you could please share the exact steps you followed, it would help me replicate the same scenario on my end and investigate the issue more effectively.

Once I have these details, I’ll be able to assist you.
