Hello,
Could you please help me in this:
I am developing a dashboard using ARIS Aware. I have three widgets, the first one to display the sector name, the second one is to display the underneath departments, and the last one is to display the underneath sections..
I want the departments name to be filtered based on the selected sector, similarly, the section name to be filtered based on the selected department.
This feature was super easy in ARIS mashzone…just drag and drop the source column. But in ARIS Aware, I am facing a lot of difficulties.
Can someone explain this to me in detail..
Thank you and best regards.
Hi,
the filtering in Aware Dashboarding has been changed in comparison to MashZone NG, indeed. It now works "the other way round", so to speak - instead of telling a widget that it is being passively filtered by another one, you now tell a widget to actively filter some other widget.
So, in your case, go to one of the Comboboxes, click on the "Filters" icon in the properties panel, select the column you want to use as filter value, and then the TARGET widget column on which to apply the filter. A guessing algorithm offers you a clever preselection in many cases.
See the screenshot for a simple example. Note that if you have multiple widgets with basically the same data that should all be filtered according to the filter widget, this will be done automatically, saving you a lot of clicks.
Hello Helmut,
Thank you for taking the time to reply to my inquiry, much appreciated.
I followed your valuable instructions; the data now is filleted as it should be.
But way the filtered data is limited only to one value? Did I make any mistake here?
Please refer to the attached snapshot, the department widget should be filtered as per the selected sector widget. When I select the “Strategy and corporate development sector” only one department displayed. Actually, there are many departments under this selected sector. Could you please help in this?
Thank you and best regards.
