EDDIE/Web Intelligence Rich Client - Formatting - Conditional Formatting Using Alerts

You can set up conditions that will automatically format the data in your Web Intelligence documents to alert you to, for example, when values fall below or above specific thresholds, or when certain strings appear.

• Make sure you are in Design mode (ALT+2).
• In the Analyze section of the Toolbar, click More and select Formatting Rules.

• The Manage Formatting Rules window appears. Click Add Rule icon in the bottom right corner.

• In the Create Rule window, you'll name your rule, add the condition (Expense Amt >= $5,000,000, in this example), and configure the formatting of the cell contents for cells that meet your condition.

• The conditional formatting defaults to red text, but changes to the displayed value, text, background and border are all possible by clicking the Format button.

• Here is the formatting used in a cross table.
