Reusable Combo Box in BAQ option where list

I have a simple dashboard I created in Application Studio that pull in labor details. The user needs to enter a date range and employee. The employee field is a reusable combo box using EmpBasic.EmpBasicCombo. The date range part seems to be working correctly. My problem comes with the employee field. I created the field.

I have the initialized it.

I add the BAQ where clause.

When I preview the dashboard, the date range fields work. There is a drop down for the employee selection, but when one is selected, the dashboard grid shows blank. I am hoping I am just missing something simple, but I can’t see what it is. I can get it working with a text box that the user has to enter the employee’s name, but would rather it be a drop down where the name is selected.

Open the network tab and look at the call when it tries to run the baq. The preview has the execution options, and it probably doesn’t have what you’d expect.

I don’t know what you mean when you say to open the network tab. Can you tell me how to do that?

Press F12. It will open Dev-Tools.

Poke around!

Welcome to the world of Kinetic debugging.

Perhaps your combo is displaying name but the bound value is EmpID. What do you see in the TransView field?

I thought of that. It is the name field.

Josh,

I think you are correct. I just tried it again and it seems to be working with the employee id. I think I had omitted the single quotes on the BAQ where clause before which was the reason it did not work for me when I intially tried it. Thanks so much. This is the last of my Classic dashboards and customizations that I needed to convert.
