Expressões permitem que você crie e edite regras de Filtros manualmente usando linguagem de programação.

Importante: Depois de editar manualmente a expressão, os operadores regulares não podem ser usados até que você Limpe todos os filtros;

Estruturas de Expressões Básicas

Operandos de Valor

Os operandos de valor são valores de um tipo de dado que são usados nas expressões como variáveis.

Operando de Valor

São valores numéricos do tipo float (domínio dos números Reais). Estes valores permitem o uso de um integer e uma parte fracionada, separada por um ponto (.) (separador decimal).

 Exemplos: 1, 1.05, 2.55;

Operando de Texto

São operandos de dados de cadeia literais. Estes valores permitem o uso de campos de sequência de caracteres(strings), sendo delimitados pela aspas simples (').

 Exemplos: 'Jonathan Souza', 'São Paulo', 'Espaguete';

Operando de Data

São valores que expressam qualquer data. É possível representar a data como uma string, sendo delimitada pela aspa simples (') e separado pela barra (/). O formato padrão suportado é "dd/MM/aaaa".

 Exemplos: '01/01/2011', '29/02/2000';

Operando Booleano

São valores do tipo verdadeiro ou falso. Normalmente usados para validar, ou não, uma condição.

 Exemplos: true e false;

Operandos de Identificação

São valores que representam um campo ou variável na expressão. Usados para fazer referências para as colunas da fonte de dados, delimitado por aspas duplas (").

 Exemplos: "Cidade.Cidade", "Produto.Produto";

Parênteses

Usados para agrupar e separar partes da expressão. Expressões dentro do parênteses são processadas antes.

 Exemplos: ("Lucro" / "Preço Total") + 10

Operando de variável de sistema

São variáveis pré-definidas do sistema. Estes valores são alterados em tempo de execução por valores pré determinados, delimitado por aspas duplas (") e precedido por cerquilha (#). Agora somente uma variável está disponível: "#null", que indica valores ou campos nulos.

Expressões Aritméticas

As relações aritméticas relacionam dois operandos (valor ou outra expressão) para compor a soma, subtração, multiplicação ou divisão.

Soma (+)

Soma dois operandos. Representado pelo caractere de soma (+).

  Sintaxe: <operando/expressão> + <operando/expressão>.
 Exemplos: "Impostos" + "Comissões";

Subtração (-)

Subtrai dois operandos. Representado pelo caractere de soma ou hífen (-).

  Sintaxe: <operando/expressão> - <operando/expressão>.
 Exemplos: "Preço" - "Impostos";

Multiplication (*)

Multiplicate two operands. Represented by the multiplication or star (*) character.

   Syntax: <operand/expression> * <operand/expression>. 
 Examples: "Amount" * "Unit Price";

Division(/)

Divides two operands. Represented by the divide or bar (/) character.

   Syntax: <operand/expression> / <operand/expression>. 
 Examples: "Total Value" / "Amount".

Relational Expressions

The relational expressions compare two operands (value or another expression) two evaluate if a condition is true or false. Usually used with decision functions, like the IF.

Equal (==)

Performs the equal comparison expression between two operands. Represented by the equal operator (==).

   Syntax: <expression> == <expression>. 
 Examples: "Unit Price" == "Total Price";

Different (!=)

Performs the different comparison expression between two operands. Represented by the different operator (!=).

   Syntax: <expression> != <expression>.
 Examples: "City.City" != 'New York';

Greater than (>)

Return true if the the first expression is greater than the second expression and false otherwise. Represented by the greater operator (>).

   Syntax: <expression> > <expression>. 
 Examples: "Order Date" > '01/01/2011';

Greater or equal than (>=)

Return true if the the first expression is greater than or equal to the second expression and false otherwise. Represented by the greater or equal operator (>=).

   Syntax: <expression> >= <expression>. 
 Examples: IF("Order Date" >= '01/01/2011';"Order Date";0);

Lesser than (<)

Return true if the the first expression is lesser than the second expression and false otherwise. Represented by the lesser operator (<).

   Syntax: <expression> < <expression>. 
 Examples: "Profit" < '0';

Lesser or equal than (<=)

Return true if the the first expression is lesser than or equal to the second expression and false otherwise. Represented by the lesser or equal operator (<=).

   Syntax: <expression> <= <expression>. 
 Examples: IF("Order Date" <= '01/01/2011';"Order Date";0).

Logical Expressions

The logical expressions group two operands (boolean type or another expression) to compose a logic expression, with the objective to evaluate two boolean operands relation into a true or false result. Usually used with decision functions, like the IF and with relational expressions.

And (&&)

Performs the logical operation AND between two boolean values. The two operands must be true for the result of the operation to be true. Represented by the AND operator (&&).

   Syntax: <expression> && <expression>. 
 Examples: IF((Gross Sales > '0') && (Seller == 'John Snow');'Sold';'Not Sold'), IF((City!="#null") && (Date<DAY_FROM_TODAY(0));1;0);

Or (||)

Performs the logical operation OR between two boolean values. One of the two operands must be true for the result of the operation to be true. Represented by the OR operator (||).

   Syntax: <expression> || <expression>. 
 Examples: IF((Gross Sales > '0') || (Sold == 'true');'Sold';'Not Sold'), IF((City!="#null") || (Date<DAY_FROM_TODAY(0));1;0);

Not (!)

Performs the denial logical operation for a boolean value. If the operand are true the NOT convert it to false (and the other way around). Represented by the NOT operator (!).

   Syntax: ! <expression>. 
 Examples: IF(!BETWEEN("Date", '01/01/2013', '31/12/2013');'Not 2013';'2013').

Auxiliary Functions

Basic Functions

The basic functions are system default functions and implements useful functionalities.

Abs

   Syntax: ABS(<expression>). Accept one parameter and process a numeric data type. 
 Examples: ABS(Gross Sale-Taxes);

Avg

Returns the average value of an array of values.

   Syntax: AVG(<expression1>;<expression2>[;<expression3>;...;<expressionN>]). Accept multiple parameter and process a numeric data type. 
           Can be used to return the average value of different columns from the same row of a table. 
 Examples: AVG(Taxes;Commissions;Costs);

Between

Check if a value is inside the boundaries of the parameters values.

   Syntax: BETWEEN(<expression_to_test>;<expression_bottom_limit>;<expression_top_limit>). Need three parameters (of any data type, but
           the three must be from the same type) and returns a boolean, true if value is inside the boundaries and false if not. 
 Examples: BETWEEN("Date";'01/01/2013';'31/12/2013'), BETWEEN("Gross Sales";'0';'1000.00');

If then else

Tests a boolean expression and returns a value in case it is true and another in case it is false.

   Syntax: IF(<expression_test>;<expression_for_true>;<expression_for_false>). Need three parameters, a boolean for test and returns any
           data type, provided that both are from the same type. Useful for logic tests where two different executions expressions are
           needed. 
 Examples: IF("Branch"=='SOUTH';'South';'Other Branch')
           IF("Profit"==0;0;Profit+Taxes);

Log

   Syntax: LOG(<expression_number>[;<expression_base>]). Minimum one parameter and maximum two. If just one parameters is given, the 
           neperian log is returned. If the second parameter is also given, returns the log in the respective base. 
 Examples: LOG(Profit);

   Syntax: POW(<expression_number>[;<expression_exponent>]). Minimum one parameter and maximum two. If the exponent value is not given,
           use two (2) by default. 
 Examples: POW(Value1)+POW(Value1-Value2;3);

Random
