Filtering with DatePicker

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by arc012 6

Hello -

 

I am looking to filter my gallery by using the datepicker. Here is what I have... the filter for campus dropdown works perfectly but the date picker will not filter correctly. Can someone help? Thank you!

 

Filter(Table1,
If('Campus Dropdown'.Selected.Value='Campus',Campus='Campus Dropdown'.Selected.Value),
If(DatePicker1.SelectedDate=Today(),DateEntered=DatePicker1.SelectedDate,""))

    Hi @arc012 ,

    Without looking at the logic of the rest of your code - the date filter should work as below.

    Filter(
 Table1,
 If(
 'Campus Dropdown'.Selected.Value='Campus',
 Campus='Campus Dropdown'.Selected.Value
 ) &&
 If(
 IsToday(DatePicker1.SelectedDate),
 IsToday(DateEntered)
 )
)

    I am assuming you want no results unless these two tests are true.

    Hi@arc012,

    Based on the issue you mentioned, you want to filter the gallery based on the DatePicker selected date.

    Could you please share more about your data source, is it a SP list or an Excel sheet?

    I have a test using a SP list and the formula you provided goes well.

    In an Excel sheet, a date column is Date and Time value, so you should format it when you make a filter.

    I have a test on my side, please take a try as below:

    0519.png

    Filter(

 Table1,

 If(

 Campus = "Harvard",

 "Harvard" = Campus

 ),

 If(

 DatePicker4.SelectedDate = Today(),

 Text(

 DateEntered,

 DateTimeFormat.ShortDate

 ) = Text(

 DatePicker4.SelectedDate,

 DateTimeFormat.ShortDate

 ),

 true

 )

)

    Please provide some screenshots about the error and your data source.

     

    Best Regards,

    Qi Qiao

    So, this seems to work if I'm on TODAY. If I go back in time and want to see everything that was entered say, yesterday, I get no results. Thoughts on making that work?

    @arc012 ,

    That was your original code - you wanted to test for Today(), so that is what it is filtering on.

    If you put a DatePicker on the screen, set the Default for Today(), but you can change it (I will call it dpSearch below - call it whatever your want to)

    Filter(
 Table1,
 If(
 'Campus Dropdown'.Selected.Value='Campus',
 Campus='Campus Dropdown'.Selected.Value
 ) &&
 If(
 DateDiff(
 dpSearch,
 DatePicker1.SelectedDate,
 Days
 )=0,
 DateDiff(
 dpSearch, 
 DateEntered,
 Days
 )=0
 )
)

    Hi@arc012,

    Do you want to filter the gallery by the selected date rather than default Today()?

    You need to do some fine-tuning with the original formula I provided as below:

    Filter(
 '051901',
 If(
 'Campus Dropdown'.Selected.Value = 'Campus’,
 'Campus’ = 'Campus Dropdown'.Selected.Value
 ),
 Text(
 DateEntered,
 ShortDate
 ) = Text(
 DatePicker1.SelectedDate,
 ShortDate
 )
)

    Now you can filter whenever you want.

     

    Best Regards,

    @arc012 ,

    Both of these will work - just a different approach on syntax.
