Filtering Items in a gallery

[BrendonBrooksP1]

Greetings. I am in the process of buiding an inventory application for my company. There are multiple locations and I have made a screen for each one.

All the data is stored on a single table. Eventually, I will have to write a formula that adds and removes records, but one step at a time here.

I'm using the following formual to filter records from a  location:

    Filter('ItemDataBase';'Location' = 'name of location')

This formula displays an error.  Is there something that I'm missing here?

When you hover the squiggly lines under the formula, it should display an error in the tooltip. What error do you get?

One thing that looks incorrect is that the single quotes (') are used for escaping names; in your formula, are you using a fixed value for the name of location? If so, you need to use double quotes ("):

Filter(ItemDataBase; Location = "name of location")

Notice also that if you don't need to escape the data source name (ItemDataBase) or the column name on which you want to filter, you don't need to use quotes to escape it.

Carlos,

The error that I receive is "Invalid number of arguments" when I use double quotes.

Where is this formula used, and can you post the formula that you are using now, along with the relevant columns from your data source?

Carlos,

My apologies for the delay. I discovered that my formula was incorrect. I used the following instead:

Filter( TableName, Location1 & Group1 = "NameofGroup")

Since then I have had no issues displaying anything my tables. Thank you for your assistance.
