Hi all,
I would like to request a new "selection" action in procedures to simplify selection management.
Context
We have often the situation in a procedure where we need to update the selection by going from a selection on a child to a selection on its parent.
Typical case: my current selection is on entity Month for Year to Go Months, and I want to select the corresponding year.
Current workaround
My current technique is to use a "select entity based on cube" with entity Year, based on a cube which will have data, and then have a following action "Remove selection on entity" Month.
This is a bit counterintuitive and requires to read a cube, which could be avoided.
Idea
Add a selection action in procedures which would do the equivalent of the "focus selection" click in the general selection panel.
In some cases, doing a "focus" on two different parent entities of the current selection could be useful (for example if you want to authorize in an interactive selection only members that have the same characteristics as the current selection, as defined by several parent entities).
Thanks for considering,
Etienne
