MetaData Process rules are rules that allow for the processing of raw data. There are quite a number of rules and parameters used for each rule. Below is a list of the rules and how each one is set up.
Data Cleanup Functions
1 ==================
Function: Delete Function: DeDupe
Maths functions
2 ==================
- Add
- Subtract
- Multiply
- Divide Divide by 0 is always calculated to 0 for reporting purposes
- Modulus Modulus maths, leaves the remainder
- Positive Always makes a value positive
- Numeric Forces the value to be numeric. Defaults to 0 if string or unrecognised
- Boolean Forces the value to be Boolean. Defaults to false if unrecognised.
= String Functions
- Replace Replaces one string with another
- RemoveNumbers Removes all numbers from the values
- Trim Removes leading and trailing spaces
- TitleCase Used for tidying up names. Capitalises the first letter of each word.
- SentenceCase Reformats the data into sentence case.
- Concat Combines two strings in the order supplied
- Encapsulate Surround a string with the values provided
- Fixed Extracts a fixed amount from the string
- Append Add to the end of the string
- Prepend Add to the start of the string
==Date | Time Functions
- DateTime Format the time in Universal Date Time format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss
- Date yyyy-mm-dd only
- Time hh:mm:ss only
- Zulu Zyyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss
- ReportTimeToSeconds Converts report time to a seconds value
- TimeToSeconds For normal dates, convert to a base second time for comparisons
- SecondsToReportTime When using comparison dates, after subtractions, converts to a report time format
- Percentage Divide 1 by 2, output formatted number * 100, limit to 2 decimal places
===Data Cumulative Functions
- Sum
- Count
- IsUnique
Data Transformation Functions
