Area selection in report filter via lookup?

Posted on by 144

Hi,

the user would like to select the numbers 10000..20000 (e.g. order numbers) in a report via lookup. To do this, he clicks on the first number in the lookup field; then enters ".." and now wants to select the second number via the lookup field in order to get 10000..20000 as the result. Unfortunately, the field is then simply overwritten with 20000.

Is there a trick here how to prevent "10000.." from being overwritten?

regards Ralf

    Hi ZHU,

    I think your solution is not usable in the lookup of a normal report filter field. I can't select multiple records there.

    Since the manual input - sometimes with 8-digit numbers - is very error-prone, I have no choice but to add additional fields to all corresponding reports in the request page ("from no." + "to no.") :- (

    regards Ralf

    Yes you can not select other values by lookup, otherwise it will overwrite the earlier value, in that case you have write it manually after .. i.e. firstvalue..secondvalue
