Hi,
I would like to share a way to filter a table by the line numbers of its rows.
Firstly, there are some restrictions on it´s use :
1 - The line numbers in this solution is based on the default ordering and the position of each object in the table elements;
2 - If you re-order or re-arrange the table , you´ll have to alter the formula.
That´s said, , let´s start!
I´ll use a query based on e-fashion that returns [Year], [Month] and [Quantity sold] , which gives me the following table :
I´ll need three variables :
[linenumber], a measure variable . = 1 +Previous(Self), this will give me the number of lines
[ln] a dimension variable = [linenumber] and another dimension variable [LineNumber] = =NoFilter([ln] ForEach ([Year];[Month];[ln]))
The redefinition of the context must follow the order of the dim objects inside the table , if the table is re-arranged, the contexto redefinition in the formula must be altered to consider it.
The report should be filtered by [LineNuber]
The next Picture, shows the table filtered by [LineNumber] between 5 and 10
Cheers,
Rogerio
