Quick Filters lists require selected values in one or more lists and a command button to be clicked to activate selected filters. One command button can activate all selected values or one command button can be configured for the list.
See Configuring Command Buttons.
To filter values with lists:
In a dashboard, select filter values from one or more lists.
One or more list values can be selected. Selecting values from multiple lists and clicking the command button once is the most efficient method in terms of the work that Interactive Reporting Studio must do to apply filters. However, if the data is unfamiliar, selections filter out all rows and result in no data being displayed. For example, selecting Country = France and City = New York and clicking the command button results in no data being displayed.
Therefore, if the data is unfamiliar, select values from one list and click the command button before selecting values from another list, causing the list to update the values. For example, selecting Country = France, and clicking the command button causes the City list to show only cities in France.
Click the command button to set Quick Filters.
If multiple command buttons are available on the frame, click the button associated with the selected filter value. Views change according to filters set.
Set filter values are displayed in Active Filters, which is visible by default for frame prototypes with drop-down or tabbed navigation and Quick Filters. In frame prototypes with side-label navigation, Active Filters replaces the navigation bar when printing the frame. See Printing Frames or Objects.
If a filter is selected from Active Filters, the Filter dialog box is displayed. The dialog box enables the filter values to be modified.
