integer in report- const/ filter any difference?

nikeman77

hi guys,

something in which i tried it out personally but it doesnt make any different to me, thus would like your valuable feedback..

____________________________________________

report data item

1. item

1.1 item ledger entry (entry type::sale)

1.2 item ledger entry (entry type::purchase)

1.3 integer

____________________________________________

integer properties filter(1)/ constant(1)

does it make any difference? i only want to put my print to excel codes in integer thats all. :roll:

i read up some where with the following assumptions based on my understanding:

filter (values from records field)
constant (values from c/al codes)

if you use filter, you can apply something like
1..1000
if you use constant, you have to set the punctual value (1 or 2 or 99999 or whatever, but just one number)
the same applies for all the other datatypes
anyway, if you just want to say: i want to loop the integer dataitem just one time, set the maxiterations to 1...that's it

"set the maxiterations to 1"

noted, thanks a lot ! =D>
