refreshing kpi's after selecting filter

[apparelbusiness.com]

I have an app below with 6 kpis and a grid with a filter. When I select from the filter only the grid gets refreshed. How do I also get the kpi's to refresh ?

I am using the EXNABFLT program as well.

If you want to refresh a KPI widget, simply create an app variable and link it to the widget's General > refresh. Then, when you want to refresh it, just set that app variable to true.

Sorry for the silly question...but where would I set the variable true....does it allow me to to do it in the Filter program that I attached to the filter.....SETVALUE ? Trying to find an example in the example program for Filter process.

You can set an app variable in your RPG program, for example:

SetAppVar(variableName:value)

Awesome, that was the missing link I needed. Thank you.

I most likely have something off but can't seem to get it working,




Here is the code from the filter program

vvUtility_saveSessVar('ABSco':lco);
vvUtility_saveSessVar('ABSdiv':ldiv);
vvUtility_saveSessVar('E46DATE':ldate);
vvUtility_saveSessVar('E46WH':lwh);

SetAppVar('Refreshkpi':'true');

vvOut_toJsonPair('success:true,refresh:true,');
return;




Here is where the app variable is defined in the app

This is the link to the kpi (I have 6 of them so I did the same for all 6). But when I change the filter it does not reload the kpi's

I have to assume it's because you're using vvOut_toJsonPair, and you shouldn't be. You should be using SetResponse. For example:

SetResponse('success':'true');

vvUtility_saveSessVar('ABSco':lco);
vvUtility_saveSessVar('ABSdiv':ldiv);
vvUtility_saveSessVar('E46DATE':ldate);
vvUtility_saveSessVar('E46WH':lwh);

SetAppVar('Refreshkpi':'true');
SetResponse('success':'true');

return;



But I get this error when I try to compile the filter program,

What exact version of 6.2 are you running?

So i figured it out.....the issue was the version of the nab program was running was from a previous release....I update the nab to the current exnabflt and it worked correctly.
