Traffic Lighting Cube Measures

TomKari — Thu, 14 Apr 2016 15:23:53 GMT

Hi, all

I have built a cube that contains two measures (let's call them "Little" and "Big"). I have created a calculated measure of the ratio of Little / Big, which tends to be around .2. Let's call it "Ratio"

When a user opens the cube to explore it, I would like Ratio to be highlighted, with <.2 in red and >.25 in green. It's easy to open the cube in either the EG cube explorer or in Excel and to then add the highlighting, but I'd like it to be applied right out of the box, like in the following.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Tom

Hello Tom I am not sure you can apply conditional highlighting in your application with PROC TEMPLATE. This would be something to try. Check out Kevin Smith's paper here http://www2.sas.com/proceedings/forum2007/221-2007.pdf

or his book here http://support.sas.com/publishing/pubcat/chaps/62007.pdf

Mark this reply as a solution if this works for you as I am trying to win Swag at SAS Global Forum and the 'first accepted solution' is the last badge I need to earn on the board here.
