Hi All,
Very often we are expecting Alerters in Webi Charts like in Xcelsius (Conditional Formatting) .
Yet we don't have direct call , but it can be possible in Webi 4.0.
Workaround
* I want color coding in a column chart ,
Green for Amount Greater than 5000000
Red for Amount less than 5000000
1. Create a variable for Amount Greater than 5000000
=[Amount] Where ([Amount]>5000000)
2.Create a variable for Amount Less than 5000000
Amount] Where ([Amount]<5000000)
3.Turn this table into Column Chart with Dual Value Axis , assign Greater than 5000000 to Axis 1 and Less than 5000000 to Axis 2
4.Right Click , Format Chart , Palette Style , Green for Primary Color and Red for Secondary color,
(Since we don't have option to select our own colors(Red and Green) in webi like 3.X , we only have option to select the below palettes and change transparency)
Now you got your Chart with alerters , but only drawback is scales .
There could be a misperception that Greater than 5000000 and Less than 5000000 bars will at same height
to avoid this we got our own scale definition like in Xcelsius
5.Create two variables
Max Amount
=Max([Amount])
Min Amount
=Min([Amount])
Select Value Axis
In Scaling , assign Minimum Value to "Fixed Value" and point Min Amount variable
assign Maximum Value to "Fixed Value" and point Max Amount variable
Select Value Axis2
In Scaling , assign Minimum Value to "Fixed Value" and point Min Amount variable
assign Maximum Value to "Fixed Value" and point Max Amount variable
Now , result will be
Hope you'll get use of this
