Display filter values being used on a report

Hi Pratiksha

I'll look into this and get back to you. We might be able to raise this as an enhancement request!

Kind regards,

Chris

Hi Pratiksha,

It looks like this has been requested before! I'll update the Jira enhancement request to say it's been requested again. You can use this post to track the idea.

Hi Veronika,

I hope all is well,

Myself and Lesley have since looked at this of which we believe this is now an option within our version that we tested in; 9.8.0.1 20221005. Please see below for more information.

As you can see from the below image, the Filter Values are on show with what Filters have been applied. This is the default expected behaviour.

Navigating to the Filter Formatting allows us to have the option to display/hide the Filter of our choice. In my image below I have chosen to hide Athlete Region. We can then see the results of this within the Filter Legend/String.

Would this be the option that the Idea indicates? Let me know :-)

Hi Mark,

many thanks for this quick update.

Sounds like the option I am looking for.

As soon as I am able to download the release 9.8 I will test this and will get back in touch.

Hi Mark,

I have now upgraded to 9.8.0.1 from 20221005 and there I have tested the mentioned functionality.

It works. You can deactivate those filter which should not been shown at the report-page.

But this option does not work for Parameters. I have set 3 numeric parameters in each view and 3 date parameters.

For those parameters you can not choose if you want to show the value or not. It is always shown but I think this will be okay for our clients.

Kind regards,

Veronika

Hi Veronika,

Thank you for getting back to me. I am pleased part of this works with being able to hide the Filters that are applied albeit the parameters not working. Going forward I will still leave this as an open issue (Enhancement) with the development team.
