You can link Dashboard views together so that the contents of one view are filtered based on items selected in a "Driver" driving view.
A grid view (grids only) will be automatically made a "Driver", a driving view if any of the filter expressions in any of the dashboard elements zones reference the view by name. Any Any views that are drivers can be identified by the existence of the icon
appearing in the top right of the view. Clicking on this icon will cause any dependent views and charts to refresh themselves based on the selection made in the driver grid view.
To make a Dashboard element zone dependent upon the Driver driving view, set it up with a Filter which uses at least one condition with an expression containing the drivers view name. i.e ACCTS. When the Filter is evaluated, the view name ACCTS notation will contain the rows selected on the Driver driving view. An example condition expression is:
| Code Block |
|---|
AccountNum equals ACCTS.AccountNumber |
Where AccountNumber is an Attribute on the Driver view.
