Need help on Document Chaining and Selections passing.....?

Hi Experts ,

Wasting lot of Time on Chaining the Documents , But No Luck..need help from you Folks to resolve this

we have two Applications App A and App B

Each Application is having 4 Sheets Like in App A we have A1, A2,A3,A4 Same like in App B.

Requirement is When We are in A1 sheet with Some Selections want to Move to B1 Sheet in App B  with Same Selections Done in A1 Sheet  and Vice Versa for all sheets this type of  Chaining Should Be implented .

We tryied the below Methods but non of these Give Better results:

1. tried with Open Document Action and Enabled the transfer Selection also.

2. tried with open URL Action

( by Giving the Indivisual Sheet name\ID's at the End of the URL it is Working Fine For 2 to 3 Chainings in IE Plugin after that Not Working)

3. tried Passing Selections from URL using Qv Functions Like Getcurrentselection()  But it seems like these are not going to work in the Server..

4.not preferable but tried with macros For navigation to intended Sheet.

We came to know that Doc Chaining is possible only if we have similar field Names  as Filters to transfer the Selections & Same Data model is Also required in Both the Docs..

need some Clarification on Similar Data models , I mean both should have Same Schema or any other thing shold match..?

in our case both the Data models are Different but Schema Wise both are Snow Flake Schema only....

Using Qv 11 SR10...

Plz Respond if you have any idea or Other possible Methods to implement this.....

Thanks in Advance

Regards

Hi,

the process what you followed was correct, but there are some conditions in order to use the document chaining.

1.     field names should match

2.     Not required schema to match in the dashboard's

3.     Section Access, like both the dashboards should have similar access to the user.

Make sure that these points are followed in your dashboards

Hi,

While the selections are passing from one dashboard to another dashboard, which ever fields are there the filters are there those selections will pass if no fields are common no selections are passed.

Once see to the data for those 2 fields

For selections to work.

Both app should have the same field name and selected value should also required to be there in second app.
