Only display 'Edit' link on certain rows on apex report

Question

I have the following report structure which shows sales targets and sales for products throughout the year.
Each product will have two rows: a row showing sales and a row sh

Answer 1

Usally i use something like this:

1. In "Edit Column" -> "Column Link" -> "Link Attributes" add the folowing string:

   class="#TYPE#"

2. Add this css style to your page:

   .sales_target { display: none; }

Your link will look like:

<a href="#" class="sales_target">sales_target_edit</a>
 or
<a href="#" class="sales">sales_edit</a>

All links with class="sales_target" will hide.

Answer 2

Setting the condition on a column will cause the column to be either displayed or not for the whole column, not for a specific row.

One possible solution might be to remove the extra column link through javascript. Run this code in a dynamic action, after refresh of the report. Execute javascript, execute on page load checked. I gave my report region a static id, which is "rStatic" in the code.

$("#report_rStatic .report-standard td[headers='TYPE']").each(function(){
  if($(this).text()=='SALES'){
    $(this).closest('tr').find("td[headers='EDIT_RECORD'] a").remove();
  };
});

This will loop over all cells in the TYPE column, and when the type is SALES it will remove the anchor tag in the EDIT_RECORD column.
