how to create calculate column in report studio

Answer Posted / sreenivasulu pokuru

There are two ways to create a calculated data item.
1)By using a Query calculation object.
2)by using a data item in query explorer.

example:
i want calculate revenue with existing data items sales
and price.
revenue=sales*price
steps:
1)go to query explore
2) drag a query from tool box
3) add data items (sales,price) from datasources into query
4) drag a data item from toolbox
5)write an expression (sales * price)
6)rename as Revenue for that data item in properties pane.
7)drag those three values into report page.

if u have any queries send to my
mail:sreenivasulu.cognos@gmail.com

That's it.
