    Study Notes

    Text Expressions in Flow.BI

    • Text expressions dynamically create report text content.
    • Combine static text, data source fields, and functions for flexible text.
    • Key elements include static text, data fields, functions, and operators.
    • Text content is typically an expression.
    • Labels, captions, and other text elements use these expressions.
    • Text is fundamental to report creation; manipulating text dynamically is a powerful feature.
    • Possible to adjust properties via events (addressed later).
    • Text can be as simple as static text.

    Key Components

    • Static Text: Plain text displayed directly in the report.
    • Data Fields: References report data sources; replaced by values from the source.
    • Functions: Built-in functions handle calculations, data formatting, and text manipulation.
    • Operators: Used for mathematical, logical, and comparison operations; enable complex calculations.

    Example

    • ProductName: {ProductName} — Replaced with actual product name from the source.
    • Price: {UnitPrice} — Displays unit price as currency with two decimal places.

    Common Use Cases

    • Dynamic Text Generation: Customized text based on data values.
    • Data Formatting: Formats numbers, dates, and currencies.
    • Conditional Formatting: Displays different text based on conditions.
    • Value Calculations: Calculates and displays values.
    • Hyperlinks: Creates links to external resources or internal reports.

    Tips and Techniques

    • Expression Editor: User-friendly interface for creating expressions.
    • Built-in Functions: Use Flow.BI's broad functions for text manipulation, date/time formatting, and calculations.
    • Thorough Testing: Test with various datasets for accuracy.
    • Performance Optimization: Avoid complex expressions for faster report generation.
