    Study Notes

    Multi-Line Expressions in Flow.BI

    • Expressions can span multiple lines.
    • Results are displayed across multiple lines.
    • Calculations use data fields, operators, and built-in functions.

    Using Data Fields and Operators

    • Reference data fields directly (e.g., {Quantity + UnitPrice}).
    • Use operators (+, -, *, /, and parentheses) for calculations (e.g., {UnitPrice * (1 - Discount)}).
    • Directly include data fields from the data source in the expression (e.g., {Quantity + UnitPrice}).
    • Use arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /, and parentheses) for calculations (e.g., {UnitPrice * (1 - Discount)}).

    Using Built-in Functions

    • Flow.BI offers built-in functions for expressions.
    • Calculate total price with a 10% discount: {UnitPrice * Quantity * (1 - 0.1)}.
    • Flow.BI provides various built-in functions for text expressions.
    • Calculate total price with a 10% discount: {UnitPrice * Quantity * (1 - 0.1)}.

    Tips for Using Expressions

    • Test expressions with different data sets.
    • Use parentheses to control calculation order.
    • Format results using functions (numbers, dates, currencies).
    • Optimize complex expressions for large datasets to prevent performance issues.
