Demo of How to use Input Control Values in Report Header

In this document I will be showing how to use Input Control Values in Report Header.

I have created a query to display Sales revenue for Dallas store for year 2004 (used 2 filters- Store name and Year) and I have created Input Control for Lines.

I have selected value as Accessories from input control. Now I want to use this value of input control in report header.

There are 3 simple steps:

  1. Create an Input control

    2.  Make sure that Input control dependency includes the Report Body and not just a Block.

3.  Create a formula using ReportFilter([Dimension Name]) function
