Display of 0's in rows with no data in OneStream AND excel Export
Hello,
How Can I have rows that have no data for a time period to display 0 instead of blank in OneStream as well as when exported to Excel.
Forum Discussion
Add a column that adds zero to the data column. [Null] + 0 = 0.
Cube View [Column 1] has the (sometimes null) data
Cube View [Column 2] = [Column 1] + 0 using a GetDataCell formula
In case it is not obvious, you can hide [Column 1].
Is there a way to do this without column math? Using column math prevents the drill down functionality.
Cheers!
If we don't use the GetDataCell formula in the report, we could use the GetDataCell formula in the account formula.
WARNING: I would never recommend adding zero to static account formula. You will populate many cells of data with zeros!
DYNAMIC CALC: But you could add it to a dynamic calculation account. And this solution might make sense for a short list of accounts. But the longer the list of accounts, the higher the 'cost' of this answer. Both in terms of report speed and chart of accounts volume.
I wouldn't create new account to accomodate this as this would require a lot of maintenance. From what I am understanding is that there is currently no supression setting for this.
Thanks for the insight.
