Dynamic filter function

I would like to be able to pass a dynamic item.property to the filter function.
Hardcoding it like this works
private function filterthis(item:Object):Boolean {
if(item.companyname == _sortvalue)    // I don't want to hardcode the property of item
     return true;
     } else {
     return false;
----- but this is what I need ------
private function filterthis(item:Object):Boolean {
if(item._sortfield == _sortvalue)      // I tried passing in a string but it doesn't work
     return true;
     } else {
     return false;
What is the proper way to pass the item.property of my array collection,
Thanks

Never mind got it ... item[_sortfield]
knew it was something simple ... sorry wear too many hats.

Class to Generate Dynamic Filter Function

I have built an ActionScript Class to allow me to create a
dynamic Filter Function for the several ArrayCollections I use in
my Flex Application. It works just as I intended, however, I'm
wondering if it's too verbose, and can be skimmed down to use less
code. For example, is there some way I could extend the Function
class? See a snippet of my Class attached.

How can i extend the filter function to also include an option to select which column to filter on?

Hi.
I have built an spry test-page (testing it on my localhost so i cannot give you direct access to it) here i have an XML file that i show in an dynamic/ repeat table with 5 columns.
I hvae included an spry filter function to easy filter out records, but the code only allows me to filter on one of the columns.
I would like to add an extra "select-menu" to define which column the filter should be active for, how can i do that
Here is the filter code and also the html code for the select-menu and the box to type in what to filter.
The bold parts is the important parts, i would like the options values from the select menu to be inserted in the filterData function to be able to define which column to do the filtering on.
var ds1 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("report3.xml", "orders/order", {sortOnLoad: "@id", sortOrderOnLoad: "descending"});
ds1.setColumnType("date", "date");
ds1.setColumnType("BUTIKNR", "number");
ds1.setColumnType("EXTRAFRAKT", "number");
ds1.setColumnType("job/@idx", "number");
var jobs = new Spry.Data.NestedXMLDataSet(ds1, "job");
function FilterData()
    var tf = document.getElementById("filterTF");
    var menu = document.getElementById("searchIdent");
    if (!tf.value)
        // If the text field is empty, remove any filter
        // that is set on the data set.
        ds1.filter(null);
        return;
    // Set a filter on the data set that matches any row
    // that begins with the string in the text field.
    var regExpStr = tf.value;
    if (!document.getElementById("containsCB").checked)
        regExpStr = "^" + regExpStr;
    var regExp = new RegExp(regExpStr, "i");
    var filterFunc = function(ds, row, rowNumber)
        var str = row["@id"];
        if (str && str.search(regExp) != -1)
            return row;
        return null;
    ds1.filter(filterFunc);
function StartFilterTimer()
    if (StartFilterTimer.timerID)
        clearTimeout(StartFilterTimer.timerID);
    StartFilterTimer.timerID = setTimeout(function() { StartFilterTimer.timerID = null; FilterData(); }, 100);
html:
            <select name="searchIdent" size="1" id="searchIdent">
                <option value="@id" selected="selected">ID</option>
                <option value="date">DATUM</option>
                <option value="time">TID</option>
                <option value="BUTIKNR">BUTIK</option>
                <option value="REF">REFERENS</option>
              </select>
          <input type="text" id="filterTF" onkeyup="StartFilterTimer();" />
Contains:
<input type="checkbox" id="containsCB" /></td>
Thanks in advance.
//Rickard H

Now it works, i had to do it like this:
    var filterFunc = function(ds, row, rowNumber)
        var str = row["@id"];
        if (str && str.search(regExp) != -1)
            return row;
        var str1 = row["date"];
        if (str1 && str1.search(regExp) != -1)
            return row;
        var str2 = row["time"];
        if (str2 && str2.search(regExp) != -1)
            return row;
        var str3 = row["BUTIKNR"];
        if (str3 && str3.search(regExp) != -1)
            return row;
        var str4 = row["REF"];
        if (str4 && str4.search(regExp) != -1)
            return row;
        return null;
I also had to remove the line "ds1.setColumnType("BUTIKNR", "number");" from the code, otherwise it would not search at all (only searches string types?).

Quartz Filter function in Preview.

I am having a problem with the Quartz Filter function in Preview. I do a monthly newsletter for a local car club. The newsletter is distributed as a printed copy and as a PDF for e-mail and on-line viewing. I prepare the newsletter in iStudio Publisher and then open it in Preview. The file size can be quite large so I use the Export-Quartz Filter-Reduce File Size to prepare the PDF for e-mail use. Since I have updated to Mavericks 10.9 some portions of the newsletter come out as a negative. See the below example.

Hi. Thanks for answering.
Take a look in what I have in Google Sheet:
Maybe I'm not using it right, but seems to me if I need to change what I want to see (if Chinese, Italian...) I need to go back in Filter dialog and change the value, can't be dynamic, based in a cell value. Besides that seems to me if I use filter all the rest of my sheet disappears. This Filter Function can be put in any place, so I can do, for example, first 5 lines showing Chinese, the next 5 showing Italian etc.
Hope my screenshots helps.
Thanks.

Dynamic filter on time characteristics on OLAP SAP BEX query based universe

Dear all,
I'm currently working on the integration between SAP NetWeaver BI 7.0 and SAP BusinessObjects XI 3.1 FP 1.5 via integration kit.
I've built an OLAP universe on the top of a BW query based on a multiprovider that contains 10 infocubes.
Everything works fine but I need to create a filter in the OLAP universe that allows to restrict data by current date (e.g. using TIME characteristic of Infocube such as 0CALDAY or 0CALMONTH). From that filter we could start creating other conditions to compare data to different time periods.
I've already tried to use a SAP exit variable in a BW query but this kind of object would restrict query data only by current date and for example it would be impossible to browse data by previous years (to bypass this problem we could use restricted key figures with different offsets but we have too many key figures in the query and the number of restrictions
would rise exponentially).
In a relational DataBase we can do that using a "where condition" based on 'CURRENTDATE' (SQL DB2 syntax).
Now, we need to apply the same logic but translated in MDX syntax.
Is it possible to enter a dynamic filter in the OLAP universe or just fixed or promt values ?
Any advise?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.
M.

Hi Ingo,
1) My question is: "How can I have to manage variable in BEX queries and in the UNIVERSE in order to obtain the maximum flexibility to create reports with measures on actual day (for example) without asking the user to promt a value ?"
I want to use an unique BEX query to define an unique UNIVERSE. On this UNIVERSE I want to create many reports (actual day, previous day, and so on).
If I restrict 0CALDAY with an EXIT variable then shall I be able to create a different restrictions on the same Universe based on 0CALDAY ?
2) Another question is:
Is it possible to insert an XML / MDX filter on the OLAP Universe with dynamic derivation of the system date ?
For example:
Instead of this:
<FILTER KEY="[0FISCYEAR].[LEVEL01].[NAME]">
    <CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal">
        <CONSTANT CAPTION="Z12008"></CONSTANT>
    </CONDITION>
</FILTER>
Is it possible to insert a tag with a dynamic function to derive the system date ?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.

Dynamic filter to capture the highest value at runtime.

Hi,
Is there a way through which we can have a dynamic filter in Webi, which would automatically filter the maximum value from a list of values associated with a dimension object?
I have the following scenario :- I have a dimension object called 'Plan Version', whose list of values would typically be 00, 01, 02, 03.....and so on. These values are updated in the database after every 15 days. Now, in my report, i need to display the data which would be associated only to the highest 'Plan Version' value. This requires me to apply a filter on the highest value of 'Plan Version', which is not a difficult job to do if it has to be a static filter. However, I need it to be a dynamic filter, i.e., every time a new plan version is uploaded in the system, and if the report is refreshed, the report filter should automatically select (highlight) the highest value for 'Plan Version' and display the data accorsingly. One way would be to use the 'Max' function, but aggregate functions cannot be used in filters. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alok.

Hey Alok,
You're correct, using Max(). But you have to apply/use it @Universe level not @Query panel.
Create Object @Universe:
Plant version = Max([Plant Version]) and make it as Dimension type.
Now use this Plane version object for Prompt @ Query level. So that it will fetch max value for the Plant Version all times.
Hope you got the logic.
Gracias...!!

Filter Function in Column Formula is not working properly

Hi,
I am using Filter Function in Column formula tab in Answers to calculate the Total sum from the start of the Fiscal month to the Month selected from the Prompt.
My requirement is I have total sales column. Now I need to calculate TYYTD kind of thing for which I cant use the Time sereis due to my report constraint.
Instead of that I am using this Filter function on TYYTD column where i am giving the filter as start of the Fiscal month to the month selected from the Prompt.
For example if I select May month from the Prompt then this TYYTD column should give me SUM(Total Sales) between Feb and May for which I am using the Filter Function. But it giving me only May sales whcih is same as Total Sales column.
Can anyone throw some light on this as this is very important for us or any alternate solution other than Time sereis measures.
Did anyone got this kind of issue with Filter Function?

Azad

Ok...here's the steps to fix this as efficiently as possible. I have a whole bunch of mailboxes under "On My Mac" and they have a bunch of mailboxes nested in them. I get my messages into Apple Mail via IMAP. (I don't know if this matters.) The steps below assume you have a similar setup.
1. Hold the Option key down and click the dropdown arrow next to each mailbox that has one. This will cause all nested mailboxes below it to appear.
2. Go to the top of the list of mailboxes under "On My Mac" and highlight the first mailbox. Then hold the Shift key down and highlight the last mailbox in the list. This will cause all of the mailboxes and nested mailboxes to be highlighted.
3. From the menu, select "Mailbox --> Rebuild" and the rebuild process will start.
4. Watch the top of the mail screen to see the message count change as the mailboxes are being rebuilt. Wait until the activity stops before doing the next step.
5. As the mailboxes were rebuilt, many messages were reset as "Unread" even though every message was previously "Read." Make sure the mailboxes you want to affect are still highlighted. Right-click and select "Mark All Messages Read."
That fixed the problem for me.

Filter Function problems on ALV report. [Resolved]

Hi,
I developed an ALV report by using function as below:
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'
         EXPORTING
              I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM = G_REPID
*            I_CALLBACK_PF_STATUS_SET = status_set
*            I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND = USER_COMMAND
              I_STRUCTURE_NAME = 'T_BSIK'
              IS_LAYOUT        = GS_LAYOUT
              IT_FIELDCAT      = GT_FIELDCAT[]
         TABLES
              T_OUTTAB    = TAB_BSIK.
And this ALV custom report is referenced from standard function FBL5N.
After i completed this report, i made an comparision of FBL5N and my custom report.
When I apply the filter function, for example, on the document type, I cannot input 2 characters in the document type field under the filter function. The field length is only 1 character. Similar case results on the field document date.
While the standard function FBL5N works very nice.
What should i do to make the filter function of my own ALV report as the same as the standard function FBL5N do?
Thanks in advance.

Oh, i found where the problem is...
add below 2 statements, then the question is resolved.
LS_FIELDCAT-ref_fieldname = ****
LS_FIELDCAT-ref_tabname = ***
FORM FIELDCAT_INIT tables RT_FIELDCAT.
CLEAR LS_FIELDCAT.
LS_FIELDCAT-COL_POS   = 3.
LS_FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME = 'BLART'.
LS_FIELDCAT-TABNAME   = 'TAB_BSIK'.
LS_FIELDCAT-SELTEXT_L = 'Document Type'.
LS_FIELDCAT-ref_fieldname = 'BLART'.
LS_FIELDCAT-ref_tabname = 'BSIK'.
APPEND LS_FIELDCAT TO RT_FIELDCAT.
endform.
Fine now.

PPS dynamic filter creation - not your normal thing but we need a solution, dont think Performance Point can handle it!

My challenge at the moment is that I need to create a dynamic filter. To explain this is a cascading filter but not your normal cascading filter,
ie, Year/Month/day etc.
Here we have a single Dimension, Organisation. It contains every level of a business,
Site,
Dept,
Company name,
Division
Holding
Strategic Area
From these as a default we have 4 built hierarchies with a different combination of the above.
Activity (Strategic Area, Dept)
Organisation (company Name, site, Dept)
Sites (Division, Site)
Holdings(Holding, Strategic Area, site, Dept)
At any given time we have have additional Hierarchies created within the Dimension, further adding to the hierarchy list.
We now have a challenge where we require our users to be able to in the first filter select the Hierarchy they want to use, ie, Holdings, Site, Organisation
or Activity. This should then cascade to the second filter and contain the relevant hierarchy and levels as a multi select filter. Of course this also needs to be connected to number of graphs, charts and scorecards on the page, dynamically.
I have gone around the houses to get this to work but not having any luck. Tried the variety of filters available, MDX, member selection, tabular,
SharePoint, and attempted to mix and match to get this to work. I cannot find a way but I don't believe this is not possible.
If it is not possible we must look around for another front end solution for our BI Dashboards which I would prefer to avoid. Any response or suggestion
would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Sheb

Hi Sheb,

You could potentially create a single materialized view that had no restriction on the BOLOGIN column and allow Oracle to use that materialized view to be used to satisfy requests from the different users. You may need to add appropriate indexes to the materialized view for that to be a reasonable option, depending on how many distinct BOLOGIN values you expect.

Using FILTER function in oracle answers

Gurus,
I have a question related to using Filter function in oracle answers.
When trying to insert a Filter (expr) Using (expr) clause in the formula area of a fact table field, It errored out with msg saying about using a wrong measure.
I know this can be done with a case expression but I tried filter clause since this is available in oracle answers.
Please help me figuring out this scenario.
Thanks.

David / Raghu - Thanks for u'r replies and apologizes for not posting question with proper material.
Am posting my code and the error message from the screen.
Code :

About the filter function in OBIEE 11g

Hi, all.
when i use the filter function in OBIEE 11g, it turn out a wrong result.
The operation steps and detail are described as follow:
1. In the Column Formula pane, I typed the Formula of the column 'count of customer' as:
FILTER(count(distinct("customer info dimesion"."customerID")) USING ("TradeType Dimesion"."TradeType" = '001'))
2. But the phisical SQL about this column in the NQquery file is that: "count(distinct(T11520.CUSTOMERID)) as c5, "
which means that, the filter wasn't applied, right?
If so, what shall I do in this situation, in other words , how can i make a Condition COUNT？
Any Suggestion is appreciated!
Thank you in advance~~O(∩_∩)O~

Hi katherine,
FILTER(count(distinct("customer info dimesion"."customerID")) USING ("TradeType Dimesion"."TradeType" = '001'))I think your formula there is mistake like many braces...instead type this in your f(x)
=>Filter(count(distinct customer_id) USING trade type='001')
This filter function is same like a case statement,if you filter still gives error write a case statement
CASE WHEN TradeType Dimesion.TradeType='001' THEN count(distinct customer info dimesion.customerID) ELSE 0 END
Will it be helpful?,follow this etiquette http://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=939

there is no filter function in numbers for ipad,its very discouraging,as a ipad fan,even nokia lumia providing filter function in excel in there low cost mobile.
APPLE KINDLY PROVIDE THIS FEATURE AS UPDATE SOON,COZ I WORK ON EXCEL N NUMBERS IN MY IPAD IS DEAD WITH OUT FILTER FUNCTION,I CAN NOT TRAVEL WITH MY IPAD DUE TO THIS REASON,AS I HAVE TO BE IN FIELD WITH SALES FORCE SO I BOUGHT IPAD.

Probably you know that the new version of Numbers for iOS uses the filters created in the Numbers for Mac version.
It's not the best solution but it helps (of course, if you have a Mac!)

How to set a dynamic filter to a prompted one?

Hello:
I have a dashboard prompt whose values determine the columns for a constructed dynamic filter column using case statement.
There is another dashboard prompt whose value determine the the values for the dynamic filter column.
I have a need to set this dynamic filter to the operator 'is prompted'. According to the OBIEE documentation, the requirement for 'is prompted' filter is to have the dashboard prompt column match with the filter column.
I currently use a presentation variable for the dashboard prompt column that gives the filter value.
How do I make my dynamic filter to be prompted (for pre-filtering results as a default behavior) and subsequently use the presentation variable (derived from the dashboard prompt) if a user enters the appropriate prompt values?
Here is an example:
Dashboard prompt: Location Type-> (State, District, City) (The case statement on my filter determines the appropriate logical column State or District or City)
Filter Value: Dallas (pv1)
The dynamic filter will generate "City" = '@{pv1}' (Dallas in the above example)
I want this dynamic filter to be set to 'is prompted' for pre-filtering results as a default behavior.
Thanks for reading this far and looking forward to your suggestions.
Regards
Sankar Bala

Filter function causing 0 items in combo box

HI there, I have combobox with the dataProvider set up like below
    <mx:ComboBox rowCount="10" id="selectUser"
                    dataProvider="{VO.getInstance().clientsResultForAddTrade}" width="258"
                    x="28" y="10" >
                </mx:ComboBox>
in the VO class I have some code that calls the filter function (when clientsResultForAddTrade is refreshed in the clientsDataChangeHandler) when the clientsResultForAddTrade data changes.
      private function clientsDataChangeHandler( event:PropertyChangeEvent ):void{
           clientsResultForAddTrade.refresh();
        public function VO(caller:Function=null)
            if (caller != VO.getInstance)
                throw new Error("Singleton is a singleton class, use getInstance() instead");
            if (VO.instance != null)
                throw new Error("Only one Singleton instance should be instantiated");
            //put instantiation code here
            clientsResultForAddTrade.filterFunction = clientAuthorisedFilterFunction;
             activityWatcher = ChangeWatcher.watch( this, "clientsResultForAddTrade", clientsDataChangeHandler);
            private function clientAuthorisedFilterFunction(item:Object):Boolean
                var b:Boolean = item.status == 'Authorised';
                return item.status == 'Authorised';
However there are 0 items in the selectUser combobox after the filter function is called, I have checked that it returns true when item.status == 'Authorised'
Please advise, 10 points available

Could it be a problem with the way I assign the data in the first place?
private function handleGetClients(event:ResultEvent):void
                VO.getInstance().clientsResult=event.result as ArrayCollection;
                //the following has a filter function in the model that automaticly refreshes
                VO.getInstance().clientsResultForAddTrade.source = (event.result as ArrayCollection).source;

Dynamic filter function
