Specify a List of Data Items for an Object

Specify the list of data items for an object when you must reference a data item that is in a query but is not in the layout.

For example, you want to add a layout calculation to a list that uses a data item that is in the query definition. If the data item does not appear in the list, you must reference it in order to make the layout calculation work. You must also specify the list of data items if you apply conditional formatting that uses a data item that is not in the query.

Procedure

  1. Click a layout object.
    Tip: For a list of layout objects for which you can specify a list of properties, see the Properties property in Report Studio Object and Property Reference.
  2. In the Properties pane, double-click the Properties property and select data items.
