When you define indicator
data, part of the information that you specify is the display attributes
for each data column that is retrieved.
The following descriptions
are for these fields:
Column Name
is the name of the
data column. You cannot modify this value.
In each type of indicator,
Column
Name is used as the default value for
Label
Override.
Category Label
is ignored. It is retained
for backward compatibility with previous versions of SAS BI Dashboard.
Label Override
overrides the value
provided by Column Name. Use this to provide
an easier to understand or more descriptive name for the column.
The following table
describes how
Label Override appears in some
types of indicators:
