number format in Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) Analysis

Question

how do I set number format in Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) Analysis ? I mean decimal places and use of 1000 separator. Thanks ahead.

Answer 1

In the criteria tab of your analysis:

1. Click the fact column and select "Column Properties"
2. Click on "Data Format"
3. Check "Override Default Data Format" box
4. Specify decimal places and 1000s separator
5. If you want this format to be applied to all the ocurrences of this fact column (and assuming you have the privileges) you can save this format as system-wide default by clicking "Save as default"
