How do I delete a single line in a WAD input layout?

Question

Hello to all,
I've created a standard delete function and I don't know how to "data bind" it to a single line of my web layout in order to only delete the selected line.
Can anyone please help and explain how to do it?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Francesco

Hi Francesco,
have never done this before using a delete function but for similar planning requirements. Just give it a try with this procedure:
At WAD you can set the behavior for each analysis item individually. If you set the "row selection" (analysis item, properties, web items parameters) for the rows to "single" or "multiple" the user can select rows (probably this is nothing new to you).
Just imagine you have the variable "product" in the row of your query. In this case just create a variable for this characteristic. In doing so you can use the variable within your delete function or within the planning filter belonging to this function for the characteristic "product". The last step is to "link" the characteritic value(s) of the selected rows  to the planning function/filter. If you implement the planning fuction or the planning sequence in WAD you can do a data binding for the variable(s) as follows:
Variable: (name of your variable)
Variable type: Selection_binding_type
Binding type: item_characteristic
Web Item: (technical name of your selectable analysis item)
characteristic: (name of your characteristic)
Please keep us updated if it works, for questions just let us know.
