RTF Colour Template in BI Publisher

This report is used to analyze the HR to find out the Salary Percentage of the Employees.

The below example shows how to set a background Colour on every other row based on Employee Salary.

If Employee (SALARY>=4500 and SALARY<=100) then background Colour set to #ffffba

If Employee (SALARY>=4500) then background Colour set to #baffc9

If Employee (SALARY<=500) then background Colour set to #ffb3ba

If the above condition is not satisfied then background Colour is set to default Colour (i.e White)

We are using “when” and “otherwise” condition tag to handle background Colour.

<?choose:?> <?when:(SALARY<=4500 and SALARY >=2000)?>

<?attribute@incontext:background-Colour;#ffffba?>

<?end when?>

<?when:(SALARY>=4500)?><?attribute@incontext:background-Colour;#baffc9?>

<?end when?>

<?when:(SALARY<=500)?><?attribute@incontext:background-Colour;#ffb3ba?><?end when?>

<?end choose?>

Note: There is limit in BI Publisher to enter conditions in Form Field (i.e. 138 characters).

But in Advanced tab, we can enter 393 characters.
