problem in filter search form,

himanshu

Hi,

When we run a query a grid with the results will appear, on right top end of grid there is a filter button by which we can filter the data using reduce and extend methods.

It was good with all normal fields but if there is a reference field then it will not work as it has to.

Here is the steps to reproduce..

I got a business object in which there are three reference attributes on form which display a certain list of values to select.

Example:

[BO name] MasterForm
[Attribute] name [plain text]
[Attribute] category [category][reference]
[Attribute] subcategory [subcategory][reference]
[Attribute] subtype [subtype][reference]

Now all work fine on the creation form, but when i like to filter the data it wont. Filter form display all fields but in the list no values it shows, like there is 5 category then it is showing 2 category only, and rest of subcategory or subtype reference list is empty, becoz of this user not able to apply the filter on these fields.

it looks some sort of bug!!.

if there is a need to send a bsv then please tell.

Thanks,

tford

Himanshu,

1) I assume your reference attributes are NOT 'multiple allowed'

2) Have you put a shortcut for the reference attributes into MasterForm?

i think u don't understand problem, on the results grid value of the reference is visible very nicely, now we click to filter button, search form reduce/extend is displayed in that reference field must show the list values. Here is the problem it would not show any value in it. And some time it show values like 2 out of whole list.

i have 3-4 reference fields in some BO, and more on other.

I am using reference shortcuts, all is well with the normal BO form.

There is something wrong!!!

On some form it shows values only on one list but that was also not all what it has to be.

So you are using shortcuts in your query. Is that right?

On the form the shortcut will only show ONE value - will not show a selection. In the filter dialog a shortcut is supposed to show a selection, but it doesn't show all possible values in the selection. Is that right?

Is it possible that you have a filter query defined that filters selection values? Is it possible that you have protection rules that filters selection values further?

himanshu

Yes i am using shortcuts in query.

On form i am not using shortcut i am using reference BObject directly.

In the filter dialog box shortcut field show all values, but it wouldn't work when there is any where clause is attached.

Yes it is possible to filter the query defined that filter selection.
No, i dont have any protection rule which filter the selection.

i sent a test bsv, please have a look.

Thanks
