Hi  Folks,

 

I made a button  bar to receive input to display top 5 /top 10 customers and I am forced to use text parameter since my button bar selection contains 'TOP 5' 'TOP 10' etc.I am using this parameter directly in rank filter and rank filter allows only numeric parameter.Could you please provide me a solution for this,.

 

Do you know how to create a numeric paramter from the text parameter or is there any way I can use numeric paramter in button bar which has Text selections('TOP 5').

 

Please provide your valuable thoughts on this.

 

Regards,

J George

you should be able to create a calculated item that outputs a numeric value, just make sure its set as a numeric type

 

IF ( 'Rank_Parameter'n = 'Top 5' )
RETURN 1
ELSE 2
