Smart filter bar value help defaulting

Former Member — Mon, 29 May 2017 10:37:01 GMT

Using a smart filter bar with value help dialog - is it possible to default values of highlighted input fields?

E.g. Having 2 fields in the smart filter bar: 'Currency' (combobox) and 'Company code' if I select currency 'GBP' and then open the value help of Company Code I would like to have the field 'Currency Code' already defaulted with what was selected in the smart filter bar.

Hi Radek Chudziak,

You need to default the data of the model bind to the controls in smart filter.

Can you elaborate a bit more? That value help dialog is generated automatically so I can't really get hold of it by id and the model behind it.

We can use this as an example as mine is pretty much the same: Smart Filter Bar

So if I click on the value help of the 'Company Code' I would like to default the 'Currency' field in the dialog.
The pseudocode would be something like this:

var oDlg = sap.ui.getCore().byId("__dialog6");
var fBar = oDlg.getFilterBar();
//Create a JSON model, populate it with default values and set it below:
fBar.setFilterData(new JSONModel());

But the problem is that the dialog has a dynamic ID so I can't access it using the id.

Hi,I was able to solve this by using annotations on the fiori app, first select the entity type that correspond to the help value.second select the property you want to add the default value, and then add the annotation common.FilterDefaultValue and the value you want

the result is this

also there's another blog on how to add default values but this worked for me. I hope that this could help you 🙂

best regards

Hi Eliu Gonzalez,

How can I repeat the same if I want to add multiple default values to the same Smart-filter bar.

thanks & best regards,
