Reporting - Filter Totals By - Single Quotes Problem

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Lazybagsy 2
Hi all,

I am trying to find a way to remove the leading and trailing single quotes that somehow get included when passing the following Item Journal Line filter string to the FlowFilter field /Lot No. Filter/ below.

Annoyingly, the report only works when the leading and trailing single quotes are removed, but I can't find where to remove them via code??? 



This is the code I use to populate the fields on the report:



Any suggestions woud be gratefully appreciated! 👍

Paul.

    Hi,
     
    Please show the code where it's generating the filter.
     
    If it's your code, you can just use DELCHR to delete single quotes from string.

    Here's the code where I generate the string . As you can see, I had already tried DelChar, thinking that there were hidden quotes but the field value is ok and returns without quotes. The problem is when I then try to filter on this in the request page - single quotes then appear :S
     
    field(LotNoFilter; Rec."Lot No. Filter")
                {
                    ApplicationArea = All;
                    Caption= 'Lot No. Filter';
     
                    trigger OnLookup(var Text: Text): Boolean
                    var
                        LotDetail: Page "Lot No. Information List";
                        recLotNoInfo: Record "Lot No. Information";
                    begin
                        Clear(LotNoFilter);
                        recLotNoInfo.Reset();
                        recLotNoInfo.SetRange("Location Filter", Rec."Location Code");
                        recLotNoInfo.SetRange("Bin Code", Rec."Bin Code");
                        recLotNoInfo.SetRange("Item No.", Rec."Item No.");
                        LotDetail.SetTableView(recLotNoInfo);
                        LotDetail.LookupMode(true);
                        if LotDetail.RunModal() = Action::LookupOK then begin
                            Text += LotDetail.GetSelectionFilter();
                            //Text := DelChr(Text, '=', '"'); //TODO: Remove single quotes from filter on request form for Lot No. Filter in Report Whse. Get Bin Content (7391)
                            exit(true);
                        end else
                            exit(false);
                    end;
                }

    Does anyone know if there is already any existing standard report in the Base Application that that takes a filter containing .. or | from a record on a page and, when the report is run from an action on that page, it has a Filter Totals By field initialized in its request page without a leading and trailing single quote???
