Data slices

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I have a requirement in my planning layout, I have versios(jan-dec) months. I created a variable v1 as 'Manual entry/Default' and restrict the version with v1 in filter tab. So, when execute the query variable v1 asks for month(jan-dec), and user need to give any of the month from jan to dec.

My requirement is if he select oct'08 then data of oct'08 will display in layout, after finish the work in oct'08, in layout, I need to display the months of nov'08 to oct'2009 in same layout itself.

I want this logic through data slice (exit_base) and using this need write code in fox formula. Need help, waiting for reply

Thanks&regards,

hi,

this is not possible this way. Why don't you use a button to call the variable screen again? Here the user can choose the next period.

Hi,

Yes, you are correct, but how it is possible to come variable screen with push button on layout. With push button we can insert 1) Data provider specific command 2) Plan specific command 3) Work book specific command.

I checked all 3 to assign the variable screen with push button. But i could n't find any solution to come variable screen with push button on my layoaut. Any ideas...........

Thanks!

When you select 'workbook specific command', the first option shown is 'Process Variables'. Select that - this command calls up the variable screen.
