Show sort indication on the scorecard

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a score card component and it is sorted (from behavior) on display by clicking on the header. But the user has a unique request.

User say he/she will come to know about the sorting only when they click, other wise they will not know. They need some indication that by clicking on the header, the score card could be sorted. I was planning of putting an arrow as an indicator but it will be static. User needs a dynamic arrow which goes up and down while clicking.

Any ideas highly appreciated.

Unfortunately there is no way to control the arrow direction on user click as the sorting is not registered anywhere in Dashboard which can be utilized.. So without a lot of effort of creating a new flash component there is no way to get a dynamic arrow..  may be you can create a idea in idea.sap.com for this ..

Thanks. Could we show a dummy arrow on launching the dashboard which moves up and down when clicking the header?

Customer is very much persistant on this.

He wants some kind of arrow to be displayed that changes with selection.

Any work around?

Hi Arun

In such case, you have to do the following

- Sort the actual data using formula within the excel.

- Block the scorecard header with actual toggle button and overlay with image file of up and down arrow

- Use DV to show up/down arrow based on toggle selection

Let me know if you have any question.

Here is a basic example. You can work on top of this to make it look fancier. Change the file extension to .xlf before opening.
