Pattern filter a data source using script - Design Studio

[Former Member]

Hi,

Can we filter a data source using a pattern i.e. I* or *I* etc. using scripts; wherein the input “I” would be specified by the user, which would either be controlled by an Input Field or a Text Box.

The idea is to find the pattern that the user keys in and filter the data source, similar to the one while we get while search for a pattern to apply a background filter – thus acting as an dynamic input rather than a static one.

Sriram - an SDK has already handled the scripting; why reinvent the wheel (script) when someone else has already done it? There is a trial; I recommend doing some cost-benefit analysis -how long for you to code, test, versus the cost/time of SDK.

Something like this? See http://visualbi.com/blogs/design-studio/custom-add-ons/add-on-search-component-using-sap-design-stud...

Yes...similar to this but I am looking for an solution within the product by scripting / other mean and not using SDK / other 3rd Party component at this point.

Thanks - Ram
