button usecase

Hi.

Im trying to discard a yearmonth selection by using a button.

my idea was to define the yearmonth field to zero so i could dynamicaly choose detailed data or total data.

any ideas? 🙂

Using a button is not the best idea I think. Why not use set analysis in your expressions. So for example sum({<yearmonth=>}Amount) with this formula you will get a sum of all amounts even when you have filtered on yearmonth.

if you want to do it by button, there is an action to clear the field.

Maybe use button with action like, "Clear selections in field" otherwise set analysis is better approach.

alternatively, you can maybe think that field to use an alternative state.

Hi guys,

a found a solution that fits to my issue.
I used a button (Set Variable) and set it the next expression:

=if(vShowMonth=0,1,0)

it worked:)
thanks for your help
