Add multiple layouts

Add multiple layouts to show a report in different ways. For example, you can define a different layout for each language in a multilingual report. This allows you to create a single report that can be viewed by report consumers that use different regional settings.

Procedure

  1. Create a variable and define the condition that will be used for each layout.

    For example, create a report language variable that includes each language that requires a conditional layout.

    Note: Expressions used in a conditional layout cannot reference a query.

  2. Click the Show properties icon the show properties icon, in the REPORT section, click Conditional layouts.
  3. Select a variable, and then select the values that require a separate layout.

Results

A layout is created for each value you selected. Use the Pages icon Pages icon to navigate the different layouts. For each layout, click Report pages to create a report page or Prompt pages to create a prompt page and add objects.

Tip: You can create new variables from the Conditional layouts dialog. The variables are added to the condition explorer. For more information, see Add a variable from the condition explorer.
