Well, if you are using replace() to resolve the issue, I guess with small tricks you could even get rid of those additional commas. Could you share the expression you are trying with and the output you are getting?

='Current Selections - '&replace(replace(replace(replace(replace(replace(Replace(replace(replace
(replace(replace(replace(replace(replace(replace(Replace(Replace
(replace(Replace(GetCurrentSelections(' | '),
[Comparison Elements],''),'Comparison Elements',''),'FT2',''),FT2,''),'("S&OP-1"|"FBP")',''),'("FBP"|"CY-1")',''),'R&OP',''),'CY-1',''),'CY-2',''),'CYP1','')
,'SNOP','')
,'FBP',''),'MUD',''),'JUD',''),'SUD',''),'NUD',''),'S&OP-1',''),'ALL','')
,[Reporting Month],date([Reporting Month],'MMM-YY')) 

This is the expression and 5 values are selected in Comparison Elements field.

And output for the same is 

 

Current Selections - Reporting Month: Apr-19 | Region: LATAM | : , , , ,  | : 

 

I want to avoid that | symbol and commas as well.

Thanks for your response.

So you want only two fields selections out of twenty fields or 18 out of 20? i.e - exclude 2 or include 2?

18 out of 20

Try like below:

=Replace(
Replace(
Replace(
'|'&GetCurrentSelections('|',':',',')&'|',
TextBetween('|'&GetCurrentSelections('|',':',',')&'|' , '|Field1','|'),
''
),  '|Actor', '')
,
TextBetween('|'&GetCurrentSelections('|',':',',')&'|' , '|Field2','|'),
''
)

 

Replace Field1, Field2 with your fields that you would want to exclude from the result

Hi tresesco,

Thanks for your continous support.

I am trying this option but no luck.

Could you please forward me .qvw where you implemented this.
