Set a Custom Label

The admin can set a custom label using the 'Custom Item Label' field.

• When this field is empty the automatic label will be applied. It is possible to customize the automatic label from the grey area in the window.
• The admin can insert a free text with the label he wants to use, e.g. "Forecast"
• The admin can insert one or more values taken from the DB writing them among square brackets. It is possible to mix these values with free text in order to get to the desired result. e.g. "Forecast [YER]" and the final label will appear as "Forecast 2016"

When a custom label is present the settings of the automatic label in the grey area will not be considered by the system.

Set the Label Format

Select the format to apply to the label in the report through the 'Header Format" drop-down. This format will be applied only to the label and not to all the values of the list member.

Customize the Automatic Label

The automatic label settings appear in the grey area in the 'Set item Label' window. In this area a row will appear for each dimension the list is defined on. 
Customizing the item label is particularly useful when the list is defined on several dimensions. 

The admin can customize the automatic label in several ways. The automatic settings will be applied only if there is no custom label set, i.e. if the Custom Item Label field is left empty.

Exclude some dimensions from the label

The check box at the beginning of each dimension row, in the grey area, defines if the dimension is to be included in the Item Label. The admin can unselect a dimension to exclude it from the item label.

Set a Custom Name for some dimensions

A custom label can be set for specific dimensions using the 'Dimension Item Label' field associated to the dimensions in the grey area.
This field behaves as the 'Custom Item Label' field:  

• When it is empty the default name of the dimension member will be used
• The admin can insert a free text with the label he wants to use, for example "Forecast"
• The admin can insert one or more values taken from the DB writing them among square brackets. It is possible to mix these values with free text in order to get to the desired result. e.g. "Forecast [YER]" and the final label will appear as "Forecast 2016"

Apply a particular format to some dimensions

The admin can set a part of the label to have a particular format, for example bold. The admin can set the format of each dimension name inside the label through the 'Dimension Format' drop-down.

Change the order in which dimension names appear

The admin can set the order in which dimension names appear inside the automatic label for the entire list from the Create List or Edit List popup. The popup can be opened from the Contents Panel clicking on 'Edit List'.
The admin should drag and drop the dimensions in order to get to the desired order and click save.
