Why Boolean datatype is not available as argument for Custom Function?
Answered
Hi Team,
I had just gone through the below link for implementation of "Custom Function" in Yellowfin
https://wiki.yellowfinbi.com/display/yfcurrent/Custom+Functions
But found that i cant implement a custom function on a argument of datatype Boolean.
I need this to implement a custom function for my dashboard.
Hi Sumit,
Thank you for reaching out to us on this. At this time, you are correct in stating that Custom Functions don't support Boolean datatypes, but if you can provide some more detail on what you are trying to achieve we might be able to assist with an alternative path forward.
Cheers,
Neal

Hi Neal,
Thanks for a quick reply.
In my case i am trying to create a custom function which checks a boolean column inside case statement and returns different columns on different states.

Hi Sumit,
Sorry for the delay. This should be possible by using a Simple Calculated field. I have just tested this on a report which has a boolean value and will display the Name column if it is true or the ProductNumber if false:
Would this meet your requirements? Please let me know if you are able to implement the same or if you have any issues with this.
