Set Filters in Datablocks

Hello guys,
I would like to learn if i can use filters in forms builder, in order to filter the data of a datablock. To be more specific, i have a datablock which is filled with some data from a select statement. And i want to filter it's data.
I think that is useful to mention at this point, that i used filters in my Powerbuilder application where i had the following statement:
dw_argies.SetFilter('(month(date(argia))='+string(month(date(d)))+') and (year(date(argia))='+string(year(date(d)))+')');
dw_argies.Filter();
where dw_argies is a datawindow which has data.
I hope i was clear in what i am asking...
Thanx in advance,
Regards,
Bill...

You can achieve something similar by setting the default_where clause in your block and then executing the query. There are of course many ways to do this, but the common theme will be the SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('my_block_name',DEFAULT_WHERE,'column_name = value') and an EXECUTE_QUERY right after it. An example would be using a poplist with allowable values and setting the DEALT_WHERE in the WHEN-LIST-CHANGED trigger and then executing the query on the block.

Hi Ravi,
Filters are not used to validate data, they are used to restrict data.
It is depend on the message type which fields you can filter.

How to set filters to a Result view

Hi All,
 How to set filters to a result view in web UI.
Thanks & Regards
Nitish.

Hi Nitish Kumar,
if you want to sort the table fields like ascending , Descending create one event ex: eh_on_sorting.
in that get the event using thtmlb_event. then check whether sorting is necessary or not.
then get the name of column to be sort by using tableview->column_key.
based on that arrange the field ascending or descending using tableview->column_sort_directin.
ascending or descending.
then sort the collection using collection_wrappor->sort( lv_attrname .. etc).
here is the sample code..
data: lv_bo type ref to if_bol_bo_property_access,
 lv_thtmlb_tableview type ref to cl_thtmlb_table_view,
 lv_attr_name type name_komp,
 lv_sort_order type char1,
 lv_stable type abap_bool value abap_false.
 try.
 lv_thtmlb_tableview ?= iv_htmlb_event_ex.
 catch cx_sy_move_cast_error.
 exit.
 endtry.
 if lv_thtmlb_tableview is bound.
* check whether its realy a sorting event
 check lv_thtmlb_tableview->event_type = cl_thtmlb_table_view=>co_header_click.
* get name of column to be sorted
 lv_attr_name = lv_thtmlb_tableview->column_key.
 check lv_attr_name is not initial.
* get sorting direction
 case lv_thtmlb_tableview->column_sort_direction.
 when 'U'.
 lv_sort_order = cl_bsp_wd_collection_wrapper=>sort_ascending.
 when 'D'.
 lv_sort_order = cl_bsp_wd_collection_wrapper=>sort_descending.
 when others.
 return.
 endcase.
* sort
 try.
 me->collection_wrapper->sort( iv_attr_name = lv_attr_name
 iv_sort_order = lv_sort_order
 iv_stable = lv_stable
* IV_SORT_CALLBACK =
 catch cx_crm_cic_parameter_error.
* could be a renamed attribute or field which does not belong to the collection
 endtry.
* in case of single selection restore the selected row index
 if me->selection_mode = selmode_single
 or me->selection_mode = selmode_lineedit.
 if me->selected_index <> '0'.
 me->selected_index = me->collection_wrapper->get_current_index( ).

BPC7.5NW: Set Filters by Attributes or Hierarchies

Hi Experts,
When running the Data Manager Package to import Master Data, under the 'Set Selection', there's a selection "Set Filters by Attributes and Hierarchies" OR "Set Filters by Attributes or Hierarchies". May I know:
1. What is the functionality of this selection?
2. What is the difference between these 2 options?
Please advise. Thanks.
Best Regards,
Kenneth

Hi Kenneth,
I noticed Attributes & Hierarchy option is working as intersection of those selections while bringing text(descriptions)
and Attributes or Hierarchy option is working as union of those selections. So with first option there are chances that texts(evdescription) for Text nodes(which does not exist in attributes table but exist in Hierarchy as folders) missing(not transferred to BPC). So Attributes or hierarchy option is pulling everything required with both the selections(attributes condition and Hierarchy condition).

Sub:Filtering is not working in ALV Grid

Hi All,
I developed a new ALV report,where in the out put i can set filtering for other columns(ex:Date,Number),but i can'nt able to set Filtering for one of the column which is CHAR type.
But when we went to table for this field filtering is working,but not in the ALV Grid of our report.
Regards,
Seshadri G

hi,
1) for filtering, we create an internak table of type LVC_T_FILT,
U can assign fields to the above created internal as per u requirements.
2) passing the above internal table to CHANGING parameter of method SET_TABLE FORFIRST_DISPLAY in ALV GRID.
IT_FILTER = < internal table TYPE LVC_T_FLIT>.
OR call this method for setting filter criteria as per u r requirement.
Set current filter settings. A row of the table describes the selection conditions for column entries that are not to be displayed.
You should never manually set up the internal table with the filter settings. Use this method only to set filter criteria that you got using get_filter_criteria or a layout.
Features
CALL METHOD <ref. var. to CL_GUI_ALV_GRID > ->set_filter_criteria
 EXPORTING
 IT_FILTER = <internal table of type LVC_T_FILT > .
Parameter
Meaning
IT_FILTER
Table with filter settings

How do I set up email filter on IPad?

We have been getting spam/scam emails. Filtered on desktop which works but wifi brings them to Ipad. How do we filter emails on IPad 2? Thx.

You can't set filters in the mail app in iOS. You have to set the filters on the server in order for them to work on the iPad. You might be able to set filters in your mail client on your computer, but there is no way to do that on the iPad mail app.

How to set a value to a Presentation Variable using GO URL?

Hi All,
     I am working on a drill (GO URL) from Dashboard page1 to Dashboard page2.
     The problem I am facing is, I am not able to pass a value to the presentation variable through GO URL. (I have to pass "Customer Category" static
value to The presentation variable present in Dashboard Page2 ).
     The Dashboard page2 is having a view select in which we are using presentation variable to select the report based on the value selected in
View Select.
     For example: If the user selects "Customer Category" value in View select and clicks on GO button Customer Category report will show the out put.
     When i am drilling from Dashboard Page1 I have to pass a value to the presentation variable used in view select and also pass some filter condition in
     GO URL.
     Please let me know if it is feasible to pass a value to the presentation variable through GO URL in OBIEE 10.1.3.4.
     It will be greate if you can provide me with the syntax to set a value to the presentation variable of dashboard page2 through GO URL.
Thanks and Regards,
Sagar Vishwanathwar.

1) You have to navigate to dashboard page, not to answer request = you have to use "Dashboard URL API" not GO URL API.
2) On the target page, you have to place dashboard prompt, which sets required presentation variable.
3) Refer to the target using Dashboard URL API and set filter on prompt column using URL parameters. Example: http://localhost:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=%2Fusers%2Fadministrator%2F_portal&Page=page%201&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq&P2=D_TIME.YEAR_CODE&P3=%221996%22
Do not forget to use Action=Navigate. The syntax for setting filters using url parameter is the same as for GO URL API described in Business Intelligence Presentation Services Administration Guide.
This is the way, you can implement navigation to parametrized direct SQL reports including passing filter values...

Re: filters in ALV

Hi all !!
When using standard filter (F4) on ALV grid (called with fm 'Reuse_alv_grid_display') it is genreated the choosing-list.
But values on that list are shorter than should be.
For example: for char value 'ABCDEFGHIJ' diplayed on alv list, only 'ABCD' is visible. After choosing it only 'ABCD' is set in filter what is of course unacceptable.
thanks rich heilman for your reply
i given the outputlen as 40 but in output it is displaying full contents while setting filter the pop is not displaying full contents but it is truncated.
hi rich i am taking NAME1_ZS TYPE KNA1-NAME1.

HI,
IAM GIVING THE ANSWER TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE.
Setting and Deleting Filters
Use
You can choose to display only those rows that meet certain criteria in one or more columns.
Procedure
Setting Filters
To set a filter:
Select one or more columns.
Choose .
Alternatively:
Select one or more columns.
Right-click a column header.
Choose Set filter.
The Set Values for Filter Criteria screen appears.
If you selected a cell using the right mouse button and set a filter, the Set Values for Filter Criteria screen appears with the contents of the cell you selected as the value of the relevant filter criteria. After confirming this screen, the column is filtered according to this value.
To specify the values or ranges displayed in your list, enter the From/To values for each column selected.
Only one filter is active at one time in a list. This filter consists of one or more filter criteria. To filter several columns in a list, set a filter with multiple filter criteria.
To apply your settings, choose .
To include more than one value or range for a column, choose . The Multiple Selection for ... screen appears. To enter additional values, you have the following options:
To enter additional values for the filter criterion, use the Individual values tab (green traffic light).
To enter additional from/to values for the filter criterion, use the Ranges tab (green traffic light).
To enter additional values to exclude from the filter criterion, use the Individual values tab (red traffic light).
To enter additional from/to values to exclude from the filter criterion, use the Ranges tab (red traffic light).
The number of entries for each tab are displayed in the tab description:
To set the selection options when entering a value, double-click the pushbutton to the left of the input field. For more information about selection options, see Overview of Functions in Dialog Boxes.
To apply your changes, choose .

To delete all values entered for all filter criteria, choose .
To set the selection options for a value entry, choose . The Maintain Selection Options screen appears.
If you have set a filter without having selected a column first, the following dialog box appears:
Selection Options
Selection options allow you to describe your filter settings. You begin with the values set in the previous dialog box; the selected entries match the settings you made on the Maintain Selection Options screen.
To negate settings, such as change Less than to Not less than, choose Exclude from selection. To restore the initial setting, choose Select.
To apply your settings, choose . Your settings are displayed on the initial screens.
A legend describes the symbols displayed next to the values. To display this information, place the cursor on the relevant symbol.
Procedure Without Column Selection
If you have not selected a column and chosen ® Set filter, or used the right mouse button menu, the Define Filter Criteria window appears. Specify the columns to be filtered. To do this, proceed as follows:
Select the corresponding entries in Available columns.
To add the selected entries to Filter criteria, choose .
Alternatively:
Select the relevant entries in Available columns.
Click the selected entry or entries again and hold the mouse button. The cursor appears with a small square.

Result
If a column is filtered, this is indicated by a small black filter in the column header.
Deleting Filters
As only one filter is active in a list at one time, the function Delete filter deletes the entire filter and not just individual filter criteria. Selecting individual columns therefore has no affect on the Delete filter function. To delete individual filter criteria, follow the procedure for setting a filter and delete the relevant filter criteria.
To delete the filter, choose ® Delete filter.
Alternative Procedure in Full-Screen Mode
In addition to the procedures described, in full-screen mode you can execute the functions from the menus:

Setting Filter on an Alert

Hi,
I am trying to create an alert programatically. When I set a CAML query as the filter condition, it always gives an error
The error message says -
The filter cannot be parsed. Check the filter syntax, and try again.
If I try to add an alert programattically without any filter conditions, I'm able to do so.
The strange part is that I have used the same CAML query to create a view programatically.
I am not able understand as to how a CAML query works with a view but not with an alert.
The CAML query is run on a list which has multiple choice columns.
The query contains multiple OR conditions to check against the values for those choice columns.
I have put in a query as -
<Where><Or><Eq><FieldRef Name='ItemType'/><Value Type='Choice'><Health></Value></Eq></Where>
Even this does not work....
I wanted to ask few questions -
Is there any specific rules we need to follow to set up the filters. What are the things that can go wrong when we set filters.
If the value of a choice field has special characters like () " , ! and so on, the query does not work when we try to fetch list items. What can be done to overcome this....
I have tried to enclose the values within the CDATA tag... It seems to work, but i am not very sure about it.
Please let me know if there is any other solution.
Thanks

Same problem and similar observations with no resolution. I believe this is a bug and we are working with Microsoft support to dig deeper into the issue.
To replicate (complete code provided below):
- Create a document library
- Create a choice column on the document library called "Category". This column has the values 1, 2, 3, 4. These choices are displayed as check boxes.
- Programmatically create an alert on the document library (code below)
- Construct a CAML statement to assign to the alert object. This statement instructs the alert to send when a document is assigned a Category of 1 or 2. The CAML statement is below:
<Query><Or><Eq><FieldRef Name="Category" /><Value Type="Choice">1</Value></Eq><Eq><FieldRef Name="Category" /><Value Type="Choice">2</Value></Eq></Or></Query>
- Save the Alert
SharePoint is unable to parse the CAML and throws the following error:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8102008F): The filter cannot be parsed. Check the filter syntax, and try again. at Microsoft.SharePoint.Library.SPRequestInternalClass.AddSubscription(String bstrUrl, String bstrListName, String bstrListID, Boolean bListItem, UInt32 ulItemId, String bstrItemDocUrl, Int32 lEventType, Int32 lNotifyFreq, DateTime notifyTime, Int32 lStatus, Boolean bSiteAdmin, String bstrAlertTitle, Int32 lAlertType, String strAlertTemplateName, String bstrFilter, String bstrProperties, Boolean bSendMail, Int32 lUserID) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Library.SPRequest.AddSubscription(String bstrUrl, String bstrListName, String bstrListID, Boolean bListItem, UInt32 ulItemId, String bstrItemDocUrl, Int32 lEventType, Int32 lNotifyFreq, DateTime notifyTime, Int32 lStatus, Boolean bSiteAdmin, String bstrAlertTitle, Int32 lAlertType, String strAlertTemplateName, String bstrFilter, String bstrProperties, Boolean bSendMail, Int32 lUserID)
If I change the value type from "Choice" to "Text" SharePoint will accept the CAML and execution completes correctly, however the CAML is not honoured.For example, alerts are sent not only for documents assigned a Category 1 or 2 but also documents that only have category 3 or 4 assigned (???).
Full code to replicate:
WindowsImpersonationContext wic = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Impersonate();
 try
 using (SPSite GMS = new SPSite("http://sharepointdev:31626"))
 using (SPWeb GMSWeb = GMS.OpenWeb(SPContext.Current.Web.ID))
 string doclibname = "StrippedDown";
 SPList list = GMSWeb.Lists[doclibname];
 SPAlert alert = GMSWeb.Alerts.Add();
 alert.EventType = SPEventType.Modify;
 alert.User = GMSWeb.CurrentUser;
 alert.AlertType = SPAlertType.List;
 alert.List = GMSWeb.Lists[doclibname];
 alert.Title = doclibname + "_" + GMSWeb.CurrentUser.Name;
 alert.AlertFrequency = SPAlertFrequency.Immediate;
 alert.Filter = "<Query><Or><Eq><FieldRef Name=\"Category\" /><Value Type=\"Choice\">1</Value></Eq><Eq><FieldRef Name=\"Category\" /><Value Type=\"Choice\">2</Value></Eq></Or></Query>";
 alert.Update();
 alert = null;
 lblMsgs.Text = "Your subscription was successfully updated.";
 catch (Exception ex)
 lblMsgs.Text = "An error occured during creating your subscription. Please try again .The error text is " + ex.InnerException.ToString();
 finally
 lblMsgs.Visible = true;

Problem with IDoc filtering in the distribution model

Hello Experts,
We are using a distribution model in which we have set filters as like the following
Filter Group 1
Plant : XYZ
Sales Org: SAP1
As far as the documentation says this Condition should work with AND logic between Plant and Sales Org
(i.e ~ Plant XYZ and SO SAP1 ) but the IDoc gets created even if any one of the condition is met(looks like working in OR logic).
How to achieve the AND filtering between the different objects.
Would appreciate your kind help.
Thanks in advance.
RGds,
Vasanth.

> Jakub ~ Yes I checked the generated IDocs(classified pertaining to my Model)for my model alone and that's where we are facing this problem
So that's the filtering problem.
I would check in which segments are the "filtering objects" located (BD59) and whether it is a mandatory segment. If it is a mandatory segment - IDoc should not be created. If it is an optional segment - this segment and its subsegmets will be filtered out - but IDoc will be created.
> ~ Do we need to apply some SAP Notes to avoid this problem ?
> But why the filter should behave in OR fashion ? I do not understand.
I believe that Sachin meant that the logic is:
Filter Group1 OR Filter Group 2 OR ... Filter Group N
Filter Group 1 Object 1 AND Filter Group 1 Object 1 ... AND Filter Group 1 Object M
Filter Group 1 Object 1 Value 1 OR Filter Group 1 Object 1 Value 2 OR ... Filter Group 1 Object 1 Value L

Jakub
