Error description

  • Client is using replacement text variables within the
    description of a key figure.  We have configured the necessary
    parameters per trakker#583809.  When the report is run the first
    time, only the first column displays the replacement text
    properly (ie. 2003 Quantity).  The remaining columns will
    display the variable name and the static description (ie.
    &TXTVARYR& Quantity1 )??When we re-run the report, all of the
    columns display properly.??
    

Local fix

  • For ReportStudio:
    Use a report level calculation to display the desired text in th
    e column header
