FILTER DELEGATION LARGE DATA SET

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 195

Hello everyone,

 

Good day!

 

I would like to ask what is the best way to avoid delegation using my filter below. 

 

The first filter I used. But i'm having delegation the blue one.
Sort(
 Distinct(
 Filter(
 'Service Region Market',
 !(Vendor)
 ),
 Service.Value
 ),
 "Result"
)

Next one is same with first.
Sort(
 Distinct(
 Filter(
 'Service Region Market',
 !IsBlank(Vendor)
 ),
 Service.Value
 ),
 "Result"
)

Last is: Having incompatible comparison
Sort(
 Distinct(
 Filter(
 'Service Region Market',
 Vendor <> Blank()
 ),
 Service.Value
 ),
 "Result"
)

 Thanks in advance for your help. guys!

    Hi @YamiteKudasai ,

    You have two issues here - Distinct is not Delegable, neither is Not() which includes <> and !IsBlank. You therefore cannot do what you want in a Delegable manner. Also what type of field is Service - you would normally not be able to do a Distinct on that?

    Hi @WarrenBelz , Service is a lookup column

    The real code below. When I used collection its okay. But I don't want to use collection since the data is so big. I need to do it direct to datasource filter.

    Hi @YamiteKudasai ,

    Third reason - you cannot use Distinct on a Lookup column without using AddColumns, which is also not Delegable. Unless you want to do a big collection, you cannot do this.
