Use a button to select and deselect values in a filter

[Goncalo]

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to create a button to more easily select and deselect a group of values within a Field.

- Field I need to filter: 'Procurement Area'

- Values within the field 'Procurement Area' I want to select: 'Corporate', 'Operations', 'R&D'

• If the button is clicked, the label should change to 'Manageable Spend' and the 3 areas above should be selected,
• If it is clicked again, the filter should be cleaned and the label of the button should change to 'All Areas'.

Thanks in advance for your support.

@Goncalo , I guess you will have to use 2 separate buttons. one for field selection and one for clearing field values.

Thank you both for your suggestions.

I ended up using a button with the following details:

• Action "Toggle Field Selection"
• Field "Procurement Area"
• Value ='("Corporate"|"Operations"|"R&D")'

This toggles between selecting and deselecting the desired options.
