Conditional formatting of displayed columns in Excel template
EBS 12.1.3
Patch 12415414 applied
We are having problems with the large download file size when using rtf templates for Excel output. Wherever possible we're trying to convert our rtf templates to xls, and have been successful for some simple scenarios.
Problem:
We have some rtf templates that use conditional if-statements to determine the columns displayed in the output:
- if parameter_value = "summary", then show columns a, b, c, d
- if parameter_value = "detail", then show columns a, e, f, b, c, d
Is there a way do do this using Excel templates? I reviewed the FSG reports, and found where they're hiding columns at the end of the report. Is there an XDO_SKIPCOLUMN command? Or a way of hiding output columns?
