Select Resource Dialog Box Properties

You can use the Select Resource dialog box to select the field on which you want to base a dynamic aggregation. This topic describes the properties in the dialog box.

Server displays the dialog box when you select the ellipsis button in the Add Aggregation dialog box.

In this dialog box, Server lists all the group objects and detail objects in the current business view and the dynamic formulas that you have created in the report. Select a field and select OK.

You cannot apply a dynamic formula that you used as an aggregation, as the mapping field of a dynamic aggregation.

Sort button

Select an order for sorting the resources in the business view. The order applies to all the resource trees where you see the business view in Web Report Studio.

The order can be one of the following:

• Predefined Order
  Select if you want to sort the resources in the order as in the Business View Editor of Designer.
• Resource Types
  Select if you want to sort the resources by the resource type. Namely, category objects come first, then group objects, then aggregation objects, and at last detail objects.
• Alphabetical Order
  Select if you want to sort the resources in alphabetical order. Report sorts the resources that are not in any category first, and then the categories. It also sorts the resources in each category alphabetically.
