FieldDescription
Basic Settings
NameThe name of the stream view. By default, a space will be included before each capital letter. For example, the name CustSpendAverage will be displayed in the column heading as Cust Spend Average.
Display TypeA number of chart types are available:
  • Barchart: plot a quantity as a set of bars against a set of categories along the horizontal axis.
  • 3D Barchart: a 3D version of the standard barchart.
  • Barchart (horizontal)
  • Grid: show stream data laid out in a table.
  • Line Chart (category horizontal axis): plot line, or lines, representing quantities against a horizontal axis of 'categories'. The categories are printed along the horizontal axis, ordered alphanumerically.
  • Line Chart (numeric horizontal axis): plot line, or lines, representing quantities against a numerical horizontal axis.
  • 3D Pie Chart: a 3D version of the standard pie chart.
  • Pie Chart: show a quantity as a pie chart, grouped by a category.
  • Pivot: show stream data laid out in a table, with data for values of one attribute broken out ('pivoted') into multiple columns.
  • Stacked Barchart: a bar chart where multiple series/multiple attributes per category are displayed in a stacked form.
  • Line Chart (times series horizontal axis): plot line, or lines, representing quantities against a date/time value - a stream attribute of type Date or Datetime.
Default Sort OrderIf specified, the default order in which data should be displayed. See the Stream View Sort Order form.
Default FilterAny filter on the stream can be selected as the default filter for this view.
Background FilterAny filter on the stream can be selected as the background filter for this view. When the user opens this view the background filter is applied first and any other filter applied to the view (either specifically created/selected by the user or automatically applied as the default filter described above) applied on top of the background filter.
Default ActionThe action that will be applied when users double-click on a row in a data grid. Often this is an update action - that allows users (if they have permissions to run the action) to update the record. But you can make this open a read-only detailed view of the record if that is more useful for most users. See Action.
Drag TypeThe drag type that will be used when dragging data from this stream view. See Drag Type.
Enable Filter PickerTick this box to allow the filter picker to be used for filters created for this stream view. See Using Filters.
Form View

Tick this box to make this a form view. This can be used to accepting input from a user, for an insert or update action.

Include History RecordsTick this box to include audit records in the Stream View data. If set, superseded records will be identified by a grey background on the grid row. If not set, superseded records will be filtered out.
Pivot Details
This section only appears for pivot views. See pivot views for details 1261699603.
View Attributes

A list of attributes displayed in the view, or to build a chart. Press  to bring up a list of attributes for the stream, and drag the attributes you want to add to the view into this list.

For each attribute, the following fields are shown:

OrderThe order in which the attributes will appear in the view. For a grid view, this is the order of columns.
Name

The display name of the attribute in the view. By default, this is the same as the name of the attribute in the underlying stream.

Remember that if you are applying an Aggregate Function to the attribute, it is often useful to reflect that in the display name. For example: you are going to display the average monthly spend for each customer, by applying the aggregate function Average to the attribute CustSpend. You set the display name as CustSpendAverage.

Stream Function

You can specify an Aggregate Function on this attribute. As soon as you have specified a single aggregate attribute in your view, any other fields will be either aggregate attributes - if you also specify an aggregate function for them - or used as grouping attributes.

Role

This setting only shows if the view is a chart, i.e. not a data grid. This is the role that the field has in generating the chart.

You can set the role manually in the stream view attribute editor - but it is generally better to create charts using the visual editor. To do this:

  • drag your stream view into a dashboard
  • make sure you are in design mode
  • unlock the padlock in the view (if it is not already unlocked)

You will see a visual chart editor - you . You can drag stream attributes onto this editor to create your chart. See 1261699603 and 1261699603.

charts
ActionWith this setting you can specify a Stream Action for this Stream View Attribute. If this is a grid view then hovering the mouse over a cell a column created from this Stream View Attribute will cause a cog to appear. Clicking the cog select the row which contains the cell you have clicked, then will run this action.
Stream Attribute Details

Name

The name of the underlying stream attribute.
TypeThe type of the underlying stream attribute. This cannot be edited here. It must be edited in the stream. See Stream.
Number FormatThis field will only show if the underlying stream attribute has type Float or Integer. See Number Format for a description of formats..
Date/Time FormatThis field will only show if the underlying stream attribute has type Date or Datetime. See Date Time Format for a description of formats.
Grid Settings
These settings are only available for view attributes for grid and pivot views.
Grid Default Width (pixels)Set the default width of the column for this attribute. PhixFlow will create the grid with default column widths - you only need to specify a value in this field if the width you want is different from this default.
Label

An optional label for the resulting column header. If left blank, this is the Name of the stream view attribute.

The label gives you more options for setting the column header - for example, control over the white space in the column heading - but you can also make this an expression. For example, to that the column contains transactions for the currently logged in user, you could use: 

Code Block
"Transactions for " + _user.username

For user pchevalier, this would give the column heading:

Code Block
Transactions for pchevalier

To use an expression in this field, tick the box Label is Expression.

Multi-level labels can be generated by configuring the Label to return a list of values.

Label is ExpressionTick this box if you want to set the Label using an expression.
Changes Row ColourIf ticked, the row colour changes whenever the value in this field changes.
Hidden

Whether the field is shown on the view. Sometimes you need to include fields in views so that they can be used in filters and Actions, but displaying them would make the view cluttered. Make the field hidden.

Alignment

Set the alignment of values in this column to:

  • Left
  • Right
  • Centre
Form Settings
These settings are only available for form views - that is, grid views that have Form View ticked.
Read OnlyThis makes the field read-only in the form view.
Height On Form (pixels)Sets the height of the form field for this attribute. PhixFlow will create the form field with a default height - you only need to specify a value in this field if the height you want is different from this default.
Width On Form (pixels)Sets the width of the form field for this attribute. PhixFlow will create the form field with a default width - you only need to specify a value in this field if the width you want is different from this default.
Multiline on FormIf ticked, users can press the Enter key to create multiple lines in this field, or copy multi-line text into this field.
Selection View Attribute

This sets the dropdown list from which the user can pick a value. Drag the stream view attribute that you want to use for the dropdown list into this field. The Show the dropdown button option must be ticked to display the drop down.

When a user is entering or updating data using a form view, you can use the internal variable _form to use a value already entered in the form in the filter on a selection view. That is, the values that appear in a drop down list will be governed by values they have entered so far in the form. See Configuring Selection View Attributes below for an example of configuring selection view attributes.

If another stream view attribute has a Selection View Attribute set and has Show the dropdown button set to yes, then it is possible to set the current stream view attribute from the same selection view without a further dropdown list. Drag the stream view attribute that you want to use to set this stream view attribute into this field

Drag the attribute out of the field to delete the contents of the Selection View Attribute.

Show the dropdown buttonSee Selection View Attribute above.
Formatting Rules

A list of the formatting rules that apply to this field in the view. This section only appears when you are configuring a grid or pivot view.

All formatting rules whose Rule Expression evaluates to true will be applied to the field in the grid. However, you can tick Stop if True so that, if a rule evaluates to true, no styles that follow this in the list of rules will be applied - regardless of the result of their Rule Expression.

For each formatting rule, set the following fields:

Rule ExpressionAn expression to govern whether this rule will be applied to this field in the grid. If this expression evaluates to true, the rule will be applied.

MappingsA list of additional mappings which can be used to set values of more table cells (columns) using this drop-down.
Grid Settings
These settings are only available for view attributes for grid and pivot views.
Grid Default Width (pixels)Set the default width of the column for this attribute. PhixFlow will create the grid with default column widths - you only need to specify a value in this field if the width you want is different from this default.
Label

An optional label for the resulting column header. If left blank, this is the Name of the stream view attribute, formatted with a space before each capital letter.

The label gives you more options for setting the column header - for example, control over the white space in the column heading - but you can also make this an expression. For example, to that the column contains transactions for the currently logged in user, you could use:

    Selection AttributeThis attribute will be used to determine the record selected. This is important when the data will be refreshed while users are looking at it - for example, if they run actions that run task plans to update the data, and which are set as refresh actions (see above). Setting this using a key field of the data means that after the refresh, the same record will be selected as before.

    Row Selection Style

    The style that will applied to rows in this view when they are selected. If set, this will override the default selected row style set in the System configuration.
    Select First Row By DefaultIf ticked, the first row shown in the view will be selected when the view is opened.
    PeriodsNumber of processing periods from the stream to display on the chart. If a full set of data is generated in each period, then this will be 1. If the data is spread across processing periods in the stream - for example, each processing period only contains new data for that day, but we want to plot data across a number of days - then this number must be high enough to include all data of interest to show on a chart.
    Default WidthThe default width of the view. If empty, the view's width will be set to the system default value.
    Default HeightThe default height of the view. If empty, the view's height will be set to the system default value.
    Allow Multi-SelectIf ticked, users will be able to select more than one row in the grid.
    Frozen ColumnsNumber of columns frozen while scrolling the View horizontally.

    Configuring pivot attributes

    To configure a pivot view, add attributes and set the role of each attribute according to these rules.

    Each attribute must be assigned to one of these roles.

    ...

    This field will be used to generate columns in the pivot table. See below under pivot views - view details configuration for details of how this field will be used to generate columns.

    Formatting of the column headings will be controlled by the formatting options set on this view attribute.

    A Pivot view must have one and only one Pivot Column attribute.

    ...

    This field will be used to generate the rows of the pivot.

    A Pivot View can have any number of Pivot Row attributes.

    ...

    If Pivot Column Source == View Data (see pivot views - view details configuration), this attribute provides the pivot column headings. In most cases, the number of values for the pivot label should be exactly the same as the number of values for the pivot column.

    A Pivot View can have at most one Pivot Column attribute.

    ...

    The values in this field will be used to generate the data values in the pivot.

    You must apply an aggregate function (Stream Function) to this attribute - to provide the sum, max, min, etc. of these values for each row and column.

    A Pivot view must have one and only one Pivot Value attribute.

    ...

    Each Pivot Row Total attribute generates a value for each row calculated as an aggregate of the individual pivot column values.

    The aggregate function can be any single-valued Aggregate Function (Sum, Minimum, Maximum, Average, Count).

    A Pivot View can have any number of Pivot Row Total attributes.

    ...

    For pivot views, the following section will appear in the view details:

    ...

    This controls how the field given the role Pivot Column will be used to generate columns in the pivot table. Choose from one of:

    • View Data - the pivot columns are generated directly from the data in the Pivot Column field. If a field has been given the role Pivot Label, the label values corresponding to values in the Pivot Column field will be used as pivot column headers. The is the simplest way to generate the pivot columns, but does not allow any control of the order of values, or the ability to handle missing values e.g. when generating standard reports
    • Expression - the pivot column values are the result of an expression.

    ...

    If Pivot Column Source == Expression, this expression must return either a list of values or a list of pairs of values (the values and corresponding labels).

    The expression can refer to any lookup pipe that is an input to the parent stream of the view.

    E.g.

    Code Block
    ['20150101', '20150201', '20150301']

    In this example the resulting view displays three pivot columns.

    The pivot view only displays data where the value of the pivot column attribute equals one of the three quoted values - data that does not match any of the pivot column values is ignored.

    The pivot column labels are generated from the pivot values using the formatting rules of the Pivot Column field. In particular, the Label expression can be used to generate formatted label values automatically. If no formatting or Label expression is provided, a default label is generated. This is the recommended way of formatting column labels.

    E.g.

    Code Block
    [['20150101', 'January 2015'], ['20150201', 'February 2015'], ['20150301', 'March 2015']]

    In the second example, the same data is displayed, but the column headers are provided in the second values for each pivot column.

    This method of setting column labels is not recommended, and is provided for compatibility with existing pivot views.

    ...

    This is the maximum number of pivot columns that can be displayed. If this is blank, the system-wide default in System Configuration is used.

    Configuring pivot attributes

    To configure a pivot view, add attributes and set the role of each attribute according to these rules.

    Each attribute must be assigned to one of these roles.

    RoleDescription
    Pivot Column

    This field will be used to generate columns in the pivot table. See 1261699603 below.

    Formatting of the column headings will be controlled by the formatting options set on this view attribute.

    A Pivot view must have one and only one Pivot Column attribute.

    Pivot Row

    This field will be used to generate the rows of the pivot.

    A Pivot View can have any number of Pivot Row attributes.

    Pivot Label

    If Pivot Column Source == View Data, this attribute provides the pivot column headings. In most cases, the number of values for the pivot label should be exactly the same as the number of values for the pivot column.

    A Pivot View can have at most one Pivot Column attribute. See 1261699603 below.

    Pivot Value

    The values in this field will be used to generate the data values in the pivot.

    You must apply an aggregate function (Stream Function) to this attribute - to provide the sum, max, min, etc. of these values for each row and column.

    A Pivot view must have one and only one Pivot Value attribute.

    Pivot Row Total

    Each Pivot Row Total attribute generates a value for each row calculated as an aggregate of the individual pivot column values.

    The aggregate function can be any single-valued Aggregate Function (Sum, Minimum, Maximum, Average, Count).

    A Pivot View can have any number of Pivot Row Total attributes.

    Configuring pivot details on the view

    For pivot views, the following section will appear in the view details:

    FieldDescription
    Pivot Column Source

    This controls how the field given the role Pivot Column will be used to generate columns in the pivot table. Choose from one of:

    • View Data - the pivot columns are generated directly from the data in the Pivot Column field. If a field has been given the role Pivot Label, the label values corresponding to values in the Pivot Column field will be used as pivot column headers. The is the simplest way to generate the pivot columns, but does not allow any control of the order of values, or the ability to handle missing values e.g. when generating standard reports
    • Expression - the pivot column values are the result of an expression.

    Pivot Column Expr

    If Pivot Column Source == Expression, this expression must return either a list of values or a list of pairs of values (the values and corresponding labels).

    The expression can refer to any lookup pipe that is an input to the parent stream of the view.

    E.g.

    Code Block
    ['20150101', '20150201', '20150301']

    In this example the resulting view displays three pivot columns.

    The pivot view only displays data where the value of the pivot column attribute equals one of the three quoted values - data that does not match any of the pivot column values is ignored.

    The pivot column labels are generated from the pivot values using the formatting rules of the Pivot Column field. In particular, the Label expression can be used to generate formatted label values automatically. If no formatting or Label expression is provided, a default label is generated. This is the recommended way of formatting column labels.

    E.g.

    Code Block
    [['20150101', 'January 2015'], ['20150201', 'February 2015'], ['20150301', 'March 2015']]

    In the second example, the same data is displayed, but the column headers are provided in the second values for each pivot column.

    This method of setting column labels is not recommended, and is provided for compatibility with existing pivot views.

    FieldDescription
    Primary Axis UnitUnits for date display along the horizontal axis. Choose a value from the drop-down list. Note, however, that only as many values will be displayed as can comfortably be fitted in the space available.
    Primary Axis FormatChoose a format to display dates along the primary horizontal axis.
    Secondary Axis UnitUnits for an optional, second date display along the horizontal axis. This might be used, for example, to create a graph where the months are shown along the primary horizontal axis (Primary Axis Unit = 'Month', Primary Axis Format = 'Jan, Feb') and the years are shown along a line below this, along the secondary horizontal axis (Secondary Axis Unit = 'Year', Secondary Axis Format = 'Four digit year').
    Secondary Axis FormatChoose a format to display dates along the secondary horizontal axis, if this is being used.
