Etendo BI Inclusion/Exclusion Configuration

Javapackage: com.etendoerp.powerbi.inclusion.exclusion

Overview

Info

To be able to include this functionality, the Etendo BI Bundle must be installed. To do that, follow the instructions from Marketplace.

In order to allow users to customize and configure the information and filters in PowerBI reports, a new module has been developed that allows the creation of different configurations that facilitate the selection and exclusion of specific entities within reports.

A detailed description of the configuration window and its components is provided below.

Etendo BI Inclusion/Exclusion Configuration Window:

The window consists of two main tabs: "Header" and "Lines". These tabs are used to define and adjust the filters of PowerBI reports according to the user's specific requirements.

Name and Description: Text fields that allow the user to easily identify the configuration and understand its purpose.

Type: It indicates the type of entity to be included or excluded according to the configuration. This field provides additional information to understand the context of the configuration.
The options are:

  • Business Partner Category
  • GL Item
  • Product
  • Product Category
  • Document Type
  • Account: If it is necessary to enter accounts, selecting this type enables an Element Level, Account Type and Account Tree selector (required)
  • Business Partner
  • Sales Representative

Note

If the "Type" field is left empty, it is assumed that the line information is given by one of the auxiliary data (number, string or Yes/No fields). Moreover, in the lines tab, it is possible to combine all the options mentioned above to be included or excluded.

From and To Date: date fields to define the duration of the created configuration. If specified in the header, the lines acquire that defined period. If you want the lines to have different periods, set these dates in the corresponding lines.

Has Number, Has String, Has Boolean: These checkboxes allow the user to enable additional number, string, or yes/no value fields in the configuration lines. These auxiliary fields are used as needed in reports.

Lines tab

Line No.: Number of the line within the configuration. This number provides a reference to identify and order the lines.
