Reorder a Conditional Link

If you create several conditional links on the same column, you can reorder them to ensure that links with conditions that might overlap are triggered in the order you want.

Before you start

You must create a conditional report link before you can reorder a conditional link. See Create a Conditional Report Link.

While ordering is irrelevant for conditional links with exclusive conditions, it can affect which linked report or dashboard opens if you have multiple links that could match a particular column value.

Here's what to do

  1. Select the report column that's associated with the link and click Report Linking on the Design tab.
  2. Select Manage Conditional Report Links.
    The Manage Conditional Report Links window opens displaying all the conditional links that are associated with the selected column. From this window you can add, remove, edit, and reorder conditional links.
  3. Select the link you want to move and click the up or down arrow to move it to the position you want.
    Conditional links are examined starting with the link at the top of the list. The first link that matches the column value is triggered and any other links that could match the column value are ignored.
  4. Click OK.
