MemberQualifiedName

MemberQualifiedName is a text function that, based on the syntax used, returns the qualified name of a non-unique member assigned to a dimension in the row, column, page, or Point of View (POV). A non-unique member is a child of multiple parents.

For example, if a member is named 100 and is a child of the Product1 member and the Product2 member, then 100 is a non-unique member name. MemberQualifiedName shows the qualified names in reports. The qualified member names in this example are [Product1].[100] and [Product2].[100].

• The following syntax returns the name of a row heading, column heading or page. The syntax can be deployed from any heading cell, text cell or text box object and can reference any grid in a current report.

  <<MemberQualifiedName("GridName", Row/Col/Page, "DimName")>>

• The following syntax returns the qualified name in a row heading, column heading, or page. The syntax can be deployed from any row, column or page heading in a grid that is designated as a custom heading. To designate a custom heading, click the page, row heading or column heading, then select Custom Heading on the property sheet. You can add the function in the space provided below the custom heading.

  <<MemberQualifiedName("DimName")>>

• The following syntax returns the name of a grid or user POV. The syntax can be deployed from any text cell or text box object and can reference any grid and corresponding POV in a current report.

  <<MemberQualifiedName("GridName", "POV DimName")>>

Row/Col/Page	Numeric identifier of the row, the alphabetical identifier of the column, or the numeric identifier of the page.
