Filtering using check boxes and multiple option choice fields

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 13

Hello,

 

I am trying to filter a gallery using check boxes and I am hitting a wall. I figure there is an easy way to do this, but i have been staring at it four hours.

 

The idea is that when the check box is selected, only items that have "Pending Approval" will be displayed. Unchecked will show all items. I plan to have separate check boxes to filter for each of the options specified below.

 

 

Filter(
 ProjectList,
 If('RTO Pending Approval 2.1'.Value=true,'Ready to Order'.Value="Pending Approval",'Ready to Order'.Value<>""),

 

Projectlist is a collection created from a SharePoint Online list at the launch of the app.

'RTO Pending Approval 2.1' is a check box on a screen in Power Apps. 

'Ready to Order' is a multiple choice field.

  1. Pending Approval
  2. Pending Approval, New Games Ordered
  3. Approved - Ready To Order
  4. New Games Ordered
  5. Conversions Ordered
  6. N/A

"Pending Approval" is the string I am searching for.

 

I hope someone out there can help me with this. Thank you in advance. 

Peter.

    Hi @PeterBayliss ,

    You can put the If inside the filter, but I have had issues with it at times.

    The below should work.

    If(
     'RTO Pending Approval 2.1'.Value=true,
     Filter(
     ProjectList,
     'Ready to Order'.Value="Pending Approval"
     ),
     Filter(
     ProjectList,
     'Ready to Order'.Value<>"")
     )
    )
