I'm new to OBIEE, simpler is better please.  I have to add some new columns to an Analysis and populate them with our company address.  I have added a field called "Address Line 4" (that we do not use) to the analysis five times as shown in the image below.  I want to populate the columns with Employer Name, Address, etc.  How can I do that?

  • If what you want is that every single row has the same value, edit the formula of the columns, and there inside you enter your text with single quotes around:   ' Your employer name '

    You need the single quotes to tell OBIEE it's a static text, and not something to evaluate as LSQL code.

    Exactly what I needed.  I was not using single quotes.  Thank you so Much!!!
