Report with a variable number of columns

Kyle Jorgensen over 7 years ago

What would be the best approach to create a report with a variable number of columns?

I am creating a report that aggregates project cost data by customer and division that can be filtered by certain project attributes. I can create a DB view with a variable number of columns, but I'm not sure if Appian data types support a variable number of fields.

I've attached a mockup of what the base data looks like and what the report I am looking to create looks like.

AFAIK, Appian will not allow variable number of fields for Datatypes.
But you can achieve variable number of columns in the grid by having visibility condition I.e having if condition on the columns to conditionally show or hide
