Hi,

Please help. Very urgent in my project.

I want to place filter in a MasterFile and that filter should work only for specific column that I select in report. If I don't select or use that Specific column then filter shouldn't be applicable. I want this to happen dynamically based on Column selection.

For eg:
I've 3 columns as ROLL12 and YTD and CNT_ACCT(account count). If I select ROLL12(rolling 12 months) then report should run for last 12 months without filter and if I select YTD(year to date) then report should run for only Jan to June where filter should apply and run report for only year to date data.

FYI... I've null values in YTD for previous year

Note: User will be using INFOASSIST and I don't want user to apply filter, so this should happen dynamically based on column selection by user.

Hi,

If your table hold less than 2 years of data, then you can have a DEFINE field for ROLL12 and YTD. Use IF THEN ELSE to limit the data in ROLL12 and YTD.

Thanks,
Ram

Ram,
If I use Define then ultimately I need to use in Filter condition which is not recommended for users to do. For me it should be dynamic filtering based on column selection in PRINT clause.
