Hi,

1. Your first requirement is not clear. i.e., how to know if the project is in close-off phase?

2. For clickable departments , you can use this:

Go to text Object Properties -> Actions Tab -> Add

A pop will open Select Action Type as Selection and Action as Select in Field.

In the Field type Department <Field name listing all departments > and in Search String type ='Qlikview' for Qlikview Department.

On click of this, your entire model will be affected.

Hi Gupta

If you see the file i attached there's a Text objects for Projects Phases and departments .

What i meant is that , for Example you click Close-off , the Entire Model should show data for projects which are in Close off Phase ,

Thanks

Hi,

I can see only ID, ProjectID, Project Name and Department fields,

How will Qlikview get to know that the project is in close-off or development?

There is no such field named as Project Status having values Close-off or development.

What is the condition to tell that the project is in which state?

Anjali

Hi Gupta

This data is not Accurate , i wanted to get an Idea of how i can achieve this .

With Regards to the Departments , it is also not working advice if what i did is right?

Select in Field>>[Division Name]={'BI - QlikView','EPM','BI - SAP BO','Cape Town','Data Management','Content & Collaboration'}

Search String >> 'BI - QlikView'

is this right ?

Select in Field should have [Division Name]

Search String should have ='BI-QlikView'

Copy the exact values marked in bold.

Hi! The way to make a text object 'clickable' but always show is to make an expression in the background color for the text object.

IF(vShow = '1', Grey, Dark Grey)

You will also need to build that variable and place it in Actions tab.

Set Variable

Variable = vShow

Value = '1'

Hopefully that helps others!
