Hi i'm trying to Filter Items with the specific status when they press a Button.

So if they press the Button 'New' only the Items with the Status 'New' should show up, the same should happen with the other three Buttons.

I'm using a Globalvariable for this which is called "ExpensesStatus".

I just don't understand how to filter it.

Current Gallery Items

SortByColumns(Filter(Expenses, StartsWith(Title, TextSearchBox1.Text)), "Title", If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending))

Current Button

Set(ExpensesStatus,"New")

Globalvariable

Set(ExpensesStatus,"New");
Set(ExpenseSorting,Descending);

ClearCollect(NewReports,Filter(Expenses,Status.Value = "New").ID);
ClearCollect(ApprovedReports,Filter(Expenses,Status.Value = "Approved").ID);
ClearCollect(ExportedReports,Filter(Expenses,Status.Value = "Exported").ID); ClearCollect(DeclinedReports,Filter(Expenses,Status.Value = "Declined").ID);
Refresh(Expenses)

Thanks

HI @KarlBurg ,

Could you please share a bit more about your scenario?

Do you want to filter your Gallery items based on which button do you press? And display all records within your Galley in default?

Based on the needs that you mentioned, I have made a test on my side, please take a try with the following workaround:

Set the OnSelect property of the "New" button to following:

Set(ExpensesStatus,"New")

Set the OnSelect property of the "Exported" button to following:

Set(ExpensesStatus,"Exported")

Set the OnSelect property of the "Approved" button to following:

Set(ExpensesStatus,"Approved")

...

Set the Items property of the Gallery to following:

If(
 IsBlank(ExpensesStatus),
 SortByColumns(
 Filter(Expenses, StartsWith(Title, TextSearchBox1.Text)), 
 "Title", 
 If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending)
 ),
 SortByColumns(
 Filter(
 Expenses, 
 StartsWith(Title, TextSearchBox1.Text), 
 Status.Value = ExpensesStatus
 ), 
 "Title", 
 If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending)
 )
)

In addition, if you want to remove the Status filter condition from your Gallery, you could consider take a try to add the following formula within the OnSelect property of the "Refresh" icon button to following:
