'Taxon' attributes in Collect are very useful when connected to a good species list. When you create a species list, there is the possibility to add the family name and automatically display it in your data entry form. However, the family name seems to be treated as a 'hidden' attribute, and it is not displayed in Saiku to be used as row/column/filter attribute. This would be very useful to analyze your data. I thought that a simple workaround would be to add a new calculated text attribute which you set to be equal to the family name of your species: how can I do this? Is it possible to refer to the family name field in your calculated field expression? Thanks in advance to anyone who could give me some hints on this. Luca |

In fact, each time I enter and select a taxon name (and, therefore, the value of the calculated attribute is generated from the expression ' Is there any solution? Thank you again, Luca |
