NSC | Saved Search Formula > CASE expression for Item Type returns blank/null

edited Oct 11, 2024 8:11PM in Saved Searches

Scenario

User has a formula that uses CASE expression to get data per Item Type in columns, instead of rows.

  • Sample formula: CASE WHEN {item.type} = 'Inventory Item' THEN {amount} ELSE 0 END

However, the formula doesn't work for Non-inventory Items as it shows only blank/null.

Solution

User should double check the capitalization in the formula used. If a capital letter I is used, it is standard behavior that the formula will return blank/null.

Note that the string enclosed in the single quotes in the formula is case sensitive. Since the system uses 'Non-inventory Item', then this is the exact string that should be used as well.

Howdy, Stranger!
