Background: We save our reports as PDF and Excel. The Excel copy gets imported into our FAI (Ideagen Q-PULSE FAIR) program which populates the dimensions. PDF goes to customer.
The issue is that the FAI program populates dimensions by dimension number (as coded in FAIR and PC-DMIS) and, in the FAI program, the composites are coded separately (top half and bottom half). Currently I put in an operator comment in DMIS saying that the composite dimensions need to be entered manually due to Xact measure. Is there a way I can get composites to report the top half and bottom half with different dimension numbers without having to dimension them separately and breaking apart the composite? Possibly by using assignments/variables/generic features to pull apart the composite dimension and dimension them elsewhere leaving the original as a reference?
