How can I add alias names for column values? I can add alias names to the column, but I am unable to add them to the column values. Can someone guide me on the correct way?

Hi @kiran115 

 

Values must be factual or real, not aliases. You can only set aliases for column names, not for the values.

Thank you for your response, @Dr Atul G- LNG. In my example, I would like my report to show numeric values that correspond to specific references: for instance, 1 refers to ABC, and 2 refers to XYZ. Is this possible?
