27 Apr 20243 minutes to read

You can show the custom string in the empty value cells using the emptyCellsTextContent string type property in dataSourceSettings object of the pivot table. It can be configured through code behind during initial rendering.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'



import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { IDataSet } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview';
import { Pivot_Data } from './datasource';
import { DataSourceSettingsModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pivotview/src/model/datasourcesettings-model';

@Component({
imports: [
        
        PivotViewAllModule,
        PivotFieldListAllModule
    ],


standalone: true,
  selector: 'app-container',
  // specifies the template string for the pivot table component
  template: `<ejs-pivotview #pivotview id='PivotView' height='350' [dataSourceSettings]=dataSourceSettings [width]=width></ejs-pivotview>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public dataSourceSettings?: DataSourceSettingsModel;
    public width?: string;

    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.width = '100%';

        this.dataSourceSettings = {
            dataSource: Pivot_Data as IDataSet[],
            expandAll: false,
            emptyCellsTextContent: '*',
            drilledMembers: [{ name: 'Country', items: ['France'] }],
            formatSettings: [{ name: 'Amount', format: 'C2', useGrouping: false,
                    minimumSignificantDigits: 1, maximumSignificantDigits: 3 }],
            columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],
            values: [{ name: 'Sold', caption: 'Units Sold' }, { name: 'Amount', caption: 'Sold Amount' }],
            rows: [{ name: 'Country' }, { name: 'Products' }],
            filters: []
        };
    }
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
