Filtering table measures with a dropdown list

[#1]

SAP Analytics Cloud 

Hi I am trying to filter the measures of a table with a dropdown.
I have followed these two tutorials but it does not work.

Best Practice: Filter Table and Chart Through Dropdown (Single Selection) | SAP Help Portal

33. Filtering table through Dropdown in Analytics Application ( SAP Analytics Cloud) - YouTube

My script is as follows:

OnInitialization:

var measures = Table.getDataSource().getMeasures();

//var datas = Table.getDataSource().getInfo();

// console.log(measures);

var selectedKey = "";

if( measures.length > 0){

for (var i=0;i<measures.length;i++){

Dropdown_4.addItem(measures[i].id,measures[i].description);

if (selectedKey === "" && i === 0) {

selectedKey = measures[i].id;

Dropdown_4.setSelectedKey(selectedKey);

console.log(["selectedKey ", selectedKey]);

}

console.log(["CurrentMeasure ", measures]);

}

}

Utils.setMeasureFilter(selectedKey);

Dropdown:

var selection = Dropdown_4.getSelectedKey();
Utils.setMeasureFilter(Dropdown_4.getSelectedKey());
console.log(selection);
// debugger;
//Table.getDataSource().refreshData();

setMeasureFilter (script object):

console.log(selectedId);

Table.getDataSource().removeDimensionFilter("NEWSTOCK");

if (CurrentMeasureFilterSelection !== ""){

Chart_6.removeMember(Feed.ValueAxis, CurrentMeasureFilterSelection);

}

Table.getDataSource().setDimensionFilter("NEWSTOCK",selectedId);

Chart_6.addMember(Feed.ValueAxis, selectedId);

My scriptobject does have a string argument with selectedId

my script variable looks like this:

My dataset name is NEWSTOCK and it has 6 measures.

The chart will change, but keeps on adding measures (I have fixed this in a problem were I only have charts another way). But the table will not change. The measures do appear in the dropdown and seem to be written right in the console.log().

I maybe think the problem lies with the value NEWSTOCK, this is the only point that differs from the tutorial that I see? Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Kind regards,

Rick

Hi @Rick05,

I tried the same scenario filter measures in table I have below measure's as shown in table 

2. I used below script on dropdown.

var selectedMeasure = Dropdown_3.getSelectedKey();
if(selectedMeasure ==="Quantity"){
Table_5.getDataSource().setDimensionFilter(Alias.MeasureDimension,["Quantity"]);

}else{

Table_5.getDataSource().setDimensionFilter(Alias.MeasureDimension,["Discount"])
;
Table_5.getDataSource().setDimensionFilter(Alias.MeasureDimension,["Profit"]);
Table_5.getDataSource().setDimensionFilter(Alias.MeasureDimension,["Sale"]);

3. Its filter according to measures selection

4. If I select Sale it will filter as per Sale's Measure 

OR

Same Scenario you can do with "Measure Input Control" you don't need to be write script it will work on both chart and table

2. Add Measure Input control and remove other measure's

Kindly upvote if you find it helpful!

Thanks
