Dynamics Hide Part of Report Request Page

AlexLim

Hi all,

I have tried search though online and forum but I can't find related post, maybe i using wrong keyword or something.

Anyway, back to the point.

Due to many reason, I have a report that need print from multiple source(record). For example, Item and Sales Header, and the request page will show 2 filter section, 1 for item and the other for Sales Header.

So my question is, can i hide the individual section based on condition?

For example, if I print from Item, it will only show Item filter section and vise versa.




I know the easiest way is split to multiple report, but again, due to many reason, specially maintenance of layout.

I did try set the sorting in DataItemTableView properties to hide the filter and set filter when print from item, to see I can "force" the filter come out or not. But no luck at the end, either hide or show the section only.

I can guess that this is not possible in Navision, however I hope I wrong.

Thank in advance.

You are correct in that what you are trying to achieve is not possible.

You could try putting the filters on the Request Page and take them off your dataitem. You can then show and hide them with a variable on the visible property.
You could also create a function on the report itself and call that before running the report and then checking in the PreDataitem if the condition is met then break out of the dataitem.

This I had think before, however might not a good way as i cant keep add if user request to add new filter.

I not quiet sure the meaning of " then break out of the dataitem.", can you explain further?
