I have a problem with Filters.
I have a dimension with the values (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
I want to use this dimension as a filter, but not to let the user the option to filter out the value "0".
I don't want to exclude the values 0, the opposite - I want these values to ALWAYS be in the view, and let the user the chance to filter only between (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
Is that an option? To remove a value from the filter but not from the data?
Any help would be very appreciated
Thank you!!
If I understood your question correctly then my answer is - Yes, there is a way to do so.
Let's say your dimension name is 'dim_field' having value (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) then
Create a parameter - let's name it as 'parm_field'. In create parameter window select 'data type' as string, 'Allowable values' as list, 'set from field' as dim_field (i.e. you dimension) and add one more row in this list as 'All'. Drag this row to top and select 'current value' as 'All'. Most importantly delete row having '0', as you don't want this to be in your filter and click ok.
Click on this parameter and select 'Show Parameter Control'
Create a calculated field 'is_DimField_selected' and define it as:
IF [parm_field] == 'All' THEN 'Y'
ELSE
IF [parm_field]=[dim_field] THEN 'Y'
ELSE 'N'
END
END
Add this calculated field to filter and select 'Y'. Voila!
Kindly don't forget to mark as answer if it solves your problem ;)

Let's assume I have data like this and I'd like to fond the max value on a column an repeat for all the others within the same group:
What coul i put on Result as formula to obtain the desired result? Is there a way to obtain this result without ordering the data first?
use:
=INDEX(VLOOKUP(A2:A&B2:B, SORT({A2:A&B2:B, C2:C}, 2, ), 2, ))
I've been working on a spreadsheet with over 100 rows, and found a hacky way to incorporate a "hide" checkbox that will hide any row where column C matches a specific value (building type), specified beside the box. To do this, I first created a function like this: =FILTER(Data!A1, OR(Data!$C1<>$O$2, $P$2)) and dragged that across every row and column in a seperate sheet. This reads as, "Display current cell if the corresponding column C in that row in Data does not match the building type, or if the the checkbox is checked. This way, the whole row is hidden when the building type matches, and the box is unchecked. A1 adjusted to each row individually, $C1 referenced the building's type, $O$2 referenced the targeted type to potentially hide, and $P$2 was the checkbox.
Problem #1: This created a lot of formulas in hundreds of cells, and when the building type was not found, it displayed #N/A across the entire row. A Filter View was able to hide these values, but it was inconvenient to have to reset the values every time I wanted to hide or unhide another building type.
My Attempt to Fix: I used a filter function once again to recreate the entire sheet from one cell, hiding the appropriate rows, using this: =FILTER(Data!A2:J191, ARRAYFORMULA((Data!$C2:C191<>$O$2)+(Data!D2:D191*$P$2)) This is the hacky part. I multiplied the checkbox's "true" by an array arbitrary positive numerical values in the D column to "OR" it with each building type value to achieve the same goal as before, but for EVERY cell.
Problem #2 arose: When I get my beautiful sheet, I can not sort it via a filter view, or it will throw an error and display nothing. I'm resorting to sorting the original tab, but intend to have it be ignored entirely. So how do I combine these two, Filter View, and Filter Function, to create a nice spreadsheet where I can SORT AND HIDE rows?
Bonus Problem #3: To add more buttons, my formula is this: =FILTER(Data!A1:J191, ARRAYFORMULA((Data!$C1:C191<>$O$2)+(Data!D2:D192*$P$2)), ARRAYFORMULA((Data!$C1:C191<>$O$3)+(Data!D2:D192*$P$3)), ARRAYFORMULA((Data!$C1:C191<>$O$4)+(Data!D2:D192*$P$4)), ARRAYFORMULA((Data!$C1:C191<>$O$5)+(Data!D2:D192*$P$5)), ARRAYFORMULA((Data!$C1:C191<>$O$6)+(Data!D2:D192*$P$6)), ARRAYFORMULA((Data!$C1:C191<>$O$7)+(Data!D2:D192*$P$7)), ARRAYFORMULA((Data!$C1:C191<>$O$8)+(Data!D2:D192*$P$8)), ARRAYFORMULA((Data!$C1:C191<>$O$9)+(Data!D2:D192*$P$9))) This is ugly, and very slow to load. Is there a way to create a function range to handle the same checks on multiple rows, and crunch it into a single formula?
Here is another monstrosity (this one has less repetition) for you:
=QUERY(
{IGNORE!A2:J, IGNORE!P2:P},
"SELECT * "
& "WHERE Col3 is not null "
& IF(COUNTIF(P2:P9, False) = 0, "", "AND NOT Col3 MATCHES '^" & JOIN("$|^", IFNA(FILTER(O2:O9, P2:P9 = False))) & "$' ")
& IF(COUNTIF(A2:K2, ">0") = 0, "", "ORDER BY Col" & JOIN(", Col", IFNA(FILTER(COLUMN(A2:K2) & IF(COLUMN(A2:K2) = 1, "", " DESC"), A2:K2)))),
0
)
Your checkboxes should remain. The second row can have just True/False values, no need for column number (a simple change will be needed COUNTIF(A2:K2, ">0") -> COUNTIF(A2:K2, True)). Also consequent sort works now (but only in the actual order of columns: if checked 1, 3, 4 then it will be sorted first by 1, then by 2, then by 4). You could place another config table on the right about sorting, where you would select all the columns you wish to sort by, their mutual order, and desc/asc for them.
Edit: added IFNA so FILTER won't return an error, changed multiple ANDS to MATCHES and simple regexes.
I am currently working with the Apex Office Print it would be nice if you could help me with two points.
I am creating a template with a lot of fields, and around 50% of
these fields are optional, so they are often only (null) in my
database. Can I do something so that the fields with no value are not
shown?
My second question would be the work with the print function and
checkboxes. How do I integrate the item APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01 so
that I only print the content of a selected checkbox ? It is not
really working in the PL/SQL section.

The {tag} will just be removed when it's empty. In case you want to make some blocks disappear you can wrap that in a condition,
for example:
{#tags=null} {product_name}: {product_description} {/tags=null} {#tags!=null} {product_name}: {tags} {/tags!=null}
or if you have a value:
{#checked=="Yes"}☒Yes ☐No{/checked=="Yes"}{#checked!="Yes"} ☐Yes ☒No {/checked!="Yes"}

Are you running the AOP Process type plugin or the Dynamic Action plugin?
For example we use it for ourself when selecting invoices and printing them.
We have a checkbox in an IR:
apex_item.checkbox2(
p_idx => 1,
p_value => id,
p_attributes => 'class="invoice_id"',
p_checked_values => :P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST,
p_checked_values_delimiter => ',') as chk,
And then we have a Dynamic Action on change that sets an hidden item (P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST) on the page:
var
//Checkbox that was changed
$checkBox = $(this.triggeringElement),
//DOM object for APEX Item that holds list.
apexItemIDList = apex.item(this.affectedElements.get(0)),
//Convert comma list into an array or blank array
//Note: Not sure about the "?" syntax see: http://www.talkapex.com/2009/07/javascript-if-else.html
ids = apexItemIDList.getValue().length === 0 ? [] : apexItemIDList.getValue().split(','),
//Index of current ID. If it's not in array, value will be -1
idIndex = ids.indexOf($checkBox.val())
;
//If box is checked and it doesn't already exist in list
if ($checkBox.is(':checked') && idIndex < 0) {
ids.push($checkBox.val());
}
//If box is unchecked and it exists in list
else if (!$checkBox.is(':checked') && idIndex >= 0){
ids.splice(idIndex, 1);
}
//Convert array back to comma delimited list
apexItemIDList.setValue(ids.join(','));
In our query in the AOP DA we have:
where i.id in (select regexp_substr(:P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST,'[^,]+', 1, level) invoice_id
from dual
connect by regexp_substr(:P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST, '[^,]+', 1, level) is not null)
and we make sure the P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST is set in session state by specifying the Affected Elements of the AOP plugin call.
If you setup an example of what you want to do on apex.oracle.com I'm happy to build you the example there. In AOP 4.0 we will also include an example with checkboxes.
Hope that helps,

Example, I have table below..
Week, Quantity
1, 10
1, 15
1, 10
2, 20
2, 30
3, 10
3, 50
I also have a list box for 'Week' which is current selected on week 2.
Now, I want to create text object which shows the value of sum of quantity of week 1 (ie. 35), which will always show that result even when the list box is selected on week 2. How can I achieve this?
Currently I managed to do an expression which sums week 1 but as soon as I select week 2 it shows 0 ....
Enter the following to your textfield:
= 'Sum week 1 : ' & sum({$<Week={'1'}>}Quantity)
Use the '&' to concat values. And use the set analysis (Page 799 of the QlikView Reference Manual) to select the reqired values.
sum({$<Week={'1'}>}Quantity)
Read this like: Sum the values of 'Quantity' Where 'Week' is 1.
Replace the '$' with '1' and the expression will ignore current selection
e.g.
sum({1<Week={'1'}>}Quantity)
do this:
sum({<Week={'1'}>}Quantity)
That is basically telling Qlikview regardless of what is selected in Qlikview, that expression will always calculate as if Week 1 is selected.
I have created basic dashboards and looks good till now.
Now I have added parameters for run time analysis. Here is what I did :
Added simple parameter. name = "noofdays"
Created a Select Component, daysselect. added to a panel.
Create a value array. values are : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. corresponding arg is same for array values.
created "sql over sqlJdbc" component. Added all required values. Creates a simple query.
created a bar chart for the query in #4. Worked like a charm
Nof in "sql over sqlJdbc" component, used the parameter like below ("noofdays" is visible in parameters on the
SELECT `a1`,count(`a2`)
FROM `app_crd`
WHERE `a3`='RECV'
and `a4`='CONDITION'
and where DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL ${noofdays} DAY) <= `datecolumn`
group by `a1`
When i check my logs, I see that ${noofdays} return null.
How do i get the correct value?
Thanks
Ajay
Specify the parameter "noofdays" in the parameter property of the select component "daysselect", and also specify the parameter "noofdays" in the parameter property and in the listener property of the barchart.
