    Study Notes

    Blockly Logic in Flow.BI

    • Blockly provides a visual interface for creating scripts without traditional coding.
    • It's used for automating tasks, customizing reports, and implementing complex business logic.
    • Logical operations include tests, conditions, and evaluations.
    • Blockly is a powerful tool for building dynamic reports that automate tasks, enhance user experience, and provide insights.

    Setting up Logic in Blockly

    • Create a New Script: Right-click a component/data band, select "Edit Script," then choose "Blockly."
    • Drag and Drop Blocks: Use the palette to add blocks representing actions, conditions, and data operations. Drag and drop blocks onto the workspace.
    • Connect Blocks: Create a logical flow by linking block outputs to inputs. Connect blocks to create a flow of logic.
    • Configure Block Properties: Adjust properties within blocks (variables, arguments, conditions). Some blocks may have properties you can configure.

    Example: Calculating a Discount

    • Create a Variable: Store the total order amount using a "Variable" block.
    • Check a Condition: Use a "Conditional" block to check if the total exceeds a threshold.
    • Calculate Discount: Employ a "Math" block to calculate the discount based on the condition.
    • Update Total: Use a "Set Variable" block to update the total amount with the discounted value.

    Tips for Effective Blockly Usage

    • Break Down Complex Logic: Divide tasks into smaller, manageable steps.
    • Test Scripts: Use debugging tools to identify and fix errors.
    • Leverage Built-in Functions: Use provided functions for tasks like string manipulation, date calculations, and formatting.
    • Use Comments: Explain the logic for better readability.
    • Experiment: Try different approaches and explore various blocks and functions.
