SAP OVP how to use global filter in custom card

[former_member623248]

Hey experts,

we succsessfully developed some custom cards, make it resizeable and are able to navigatie from it. Now we're faceing a problem with the global filters from OVP. The Filter does not trigger a Odata-Request for my custom cards. Is there any special method in the custom controller which is called as event handler? i already tried some lucky shots like "onFilter", "onDataFilter" without success.

I attached the relevant coding.

Thanks a lot!
Thomas

Hi pau.b and thomas_maatz

I assume the screenshots provided by you are the original screenshots before you found the answer. I was wondering if you are able to provide the fixed version?

I am currently on the same page and not sure how you bound your card to the EntitySet.

Thanks

The solution was to just use binding to the models managed by the OVP.

In the initial coding we buildup a model by ourself (see the JSON Model part).

> Right now we are using the Model of our OVP App for binding. "BuyersWorkplace" is the model we used for the standard Cards too - managed by the Fiori Elements framework.

Hello,

I have the same problem,

could you solve it?

It is/was way easier than we imagnied. We were afraid of directly using the models we did not instanciate ourself.
We made it work by using the oDataModel the OVP itself is using.

We bind our own Card to the EntitySet which provides our data. The Framework is updating the binding with the values from GlobalFilters like it does for every other (standard) Card, too.

P.S. Thomas and I are colleagues and just updating this here to complete the answer in case someone else would search for it.

Hi Paul,

Is is possible for you to guide me how you achieved this ? A code snapshot will be a great help!!

thanks

My latest comment on Thomas' post already has it in the screenshot.

The model of the OVP is already in the context of the card and therefore can be accessed.

Hi Paul Buttner,

In my manifest i have defined the model and the entityset for my custom card.

But still data is not coming into my custom card based on filter selection.

My custom card is a simple form with just text and value which needs to come from my Model which the other OVP cards are using.

Please let me know what am I missing

Regards,

Anand
