Selection of Summarized Field

I have a chart (a pivot table, technically) that summarizes purchases/spending by customer.

What I am trying to do is allow my client to choose to see only those that have spent within a specified range...say $200-$300.

Is there a way to do this?  The owner of the company doesn't like the little built in search/magnifying glass at the top of the summarized column as it's quite small and if a client doesn't know what it is or why it's there, then they can't use it.  He wants some sort of box where the client can key in 200 and 300 and see their customers who fall into this range.

Is this even possible?  If so, can someone please tell me how?  I have seen the input boxes but they seem aimed at variables and I could not quite figure out if these would or could be helpful.

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide!

You can use input boxes to fill a top and bottom of range variables, which you can then use in set expression.

like Customer={'=Sum(Sales)>$(vMin)'}

I've made an example, see attached

Hi Neetha,


Thank you so much!  This is a great reference; however, unfortunately, it does not solve my issue.

I need to be able to select within a summarized expression in a chart, not in a static field, and I cannot find anyway to reference a specified column in a chart for comparison purposes.  Is there a way, and I am just missing it?

Hi Rayna,

If I am not wrong then you want to show all customer list who has spent between 200 and 300?

please reply yes or no if possible please attached some dome, I think I have worked on this

HI Rakesh,

Yes, exactly! I want to allow a client to enter two numbers: a top of range and bottom of range and show only those who spent a cumulative amount in that range.

If you can help, I'd be most grateful!
