The INFO() function in Jedox Web returns different information than its Excel Add-in counterpart.
The table below shows how the function works in Jedox Web, with its different arguments, a result example, and its purpose:

Example for =INFO(“usergroups”): Array function in range of 4 cells |
||
|
{=INFO(“usergroups”)} |
designer |
Lists the usergroups the current user is part of in an array |
|
{=INFO(“usergroups”)} |
sales |
|
|
{=INFO(“usergroups”)} |
marketing |
|
|
{=INFO(“usergroups”)} |
#NV |

You can use the MATCH() and INFO("usergroups") function to check whether a user is a member of a particular group. For example, to check whether a user is a member of the "sales" group, you would use the following function:
=MATCH("sales",INFO("usergroups"),0)
If the user is a member of the group, the function returns the position in the usergroup array for the group. If the user is not a member of the group, the function returns #N/A.
Note: if group memberships are created in the same session as the test above, the result will be #N/A. Just start a new session and run the function again.
