Removing Request Items

You can remove items from the Request line to exclude the data from your query or Results set.

  To remove an item from the Request line, select the desired item and complete one of the following actions:

  • Click the Delete button on the standard toolbar.

  • Click Remove on the shortcut menu.

  • Press the Delete key.

If you have not yet processed the query, Interactive Reporting removes the item from the Request line.

If you have previously processed the query, the Report Refresh dialog is displayed with this message: “The section XXXX (section) references the following removed column(s): XXXX (column name). Do you want to keep references to these columns or turn off auto-refresh or remove them with the query is next processed?” You can select to keep the references, or remove them.

Caution!

Remove items with caution as a computed item or report may draw data from the item you delete.
