RTC BIRT - show work item type name
Hello,
How it is possible to show WI_TYPE name like "Bug Reports" in LIVE_WORKITEM_CNT? Is it possible to show WI_TYPE from TYPE table in table LIVE_WORKITEM_CNT ? Is any option to merge WI_TYPE from LIVE_WORKITEM_CNT with WI_TYPE from TYPE ? What I need to do is to make chart which will show all work items but when I make chart by using LIVE_WORKITEM_CNT I get strange names in field WI_TYPE. The are like IDs not like WI_TYPE name. Regards, |

1) You can store the contents of the table TYPE in a map (Javascript object) that maps the globally unique type identifier to the human readable type name.
2) Then, you can add a computed column to the data set that fetches LIVE_WORKITEM_CNT that uses the type identifier to compute the name from the map computed in step 1. Notice the globally unique type identifier is the concatenation of the project area item id + "t" + the type id. The Work Items by Team sample report does something similar with states. You can use it as an example. Of course, if you are reporting only on the current project area, you can ensure to fetch data only for the current project area to avoid out of memory problems. |
