How to burst multiple items per burst key

Troubleshooting


Problem

Is it possible to define multiples items into the field for data items to burst on? For example, a specific user class must receive a report with multiple items about country, not just a single country.

Symptom

n.a.

Resolving The Problem

To achieve bursting similar to the following, modify your burst table so there is only one Burst value per burst key.

Desired bursting:

Recepient 
-----------------------
CAMID (":NorthAmerica) 
CAMID (":SouthAmerica)
CountryCode
-----------
3,4
5,6,7

Change needed in the burst table to achieve the above:

Recepient 
-----------------------
CAMID (":NorthAmerica)
CAMID (":NorthAmerica)
CAMID (":SorthAmerica)
CAMID (":SorthAmerica)
CAMID (":SorthAmerica)
CountryCode
-----------
3
4
5
6
7
Cognos uses the burst value and matches it to the burst key. It does not parse it.
