Implementing ALL option in Xcelsius with Qaaws

Hi,

Here I gave drill order as Year–>Month–> Currency.
My requirement is to get “All” in currency combo box and when I click on that I should display all currencies and related values which I have. Here I’m using Qaaws Connection to retrieve the data.

Please, do me the needful.

Regards,
Prasanna.

Hi Prasanna,

You probably already have this figured out however, for reference listed below is what I did.

Set the Filter in the QAAWS to Matches Pattern then select Prompt. On the “Define a Prompt” dialog box check Set the default value(s) of the Prompt. Enter % in Type of Value: and click the > button to move it to Selected Values.

In Xcelsius use a “%” in the cell the QAAWS is reading. For an example, I use a List box to show ALL, QTR1, QTR2 etc. When the user clicks on ALL an if statement is used to convert it to a “%” (=IF(A1=“ALL”,"%",A1)).
