detail by with data picker

Hello all,

 

It seems that when using the data picker functionality in a layout (using Nexel rather than Rules), that if a detail by is used on a block the entity being detailed by is ignored, and the total is displayed for every item.

In a simple example, if I set a single rule for a block to be "=@[V001]" , and then put Entity1 on the column, i get this:

The numbers above add up to 16, although this does not show in the Total column (which is also an issue.)

 

If I remove Entity1 from the column and add a Detail By Entity1 on the block instead, I get this:

Is this just a limitation? I realize i can use other approaches (Rules, DF, etc) but each have trade-offs.

 

Thanks all!

    Dear J C,

     

    seems that you are right. Using Detail By has different behavior than using column axis.

     

    To be honest, the community isn´t the real place for such requests.

     

    To get the best investigation and result, it would be even better opening ticket in our support center. http://support.board.com 

     

    Hope it helps.

     

    regards
