How to implement country-specific report in Manager

[saschavalentin]

@Patch Do you know if in the meantime where-statements work in Manager?

I´ve tried to filter transactions by the accounts but there seems to be no effect. Either this koind of filter doesn´t work in Manager or my statement is false:

{% assign einnahmen = transactions|tax_amount|where: "GeneralLedgerAccount.Name", "Einkommen" %}
{{einnahmen}}

Liquid is an extendable programming environment

• For an introduction to the environment see Introduction – Liquid template language

• For more detail see Liquid for Designers · Shopify/liquid Wiki · GitHub

• The variant Manager uses is actually part of Microsoft’s .Net For a summary of the differences see DotLiquid for Designers · dotliquid/dotliquid Wiki · GitHub

I suggested earlier in this thread

@Patch

Is there any chance the filters could mimic the custom reports eg

• Where: table_specifier, Field_specifier
• Select: table_specifier, Field_specifier

The advantage being; that having some commonality between Managers custom reports and localisations would help Manager’s ease of use.

There are other variants of liquid such as Liquid Filters | Jekyll • Simple, blog-aware, static sites which does have the following filters

where:
where_exp:
group_by:
group_by_exp:

Manager does now have the group_by filter

@lubos

I just added new group_by filter to the latest version.

However, to my knowledge the other filters have not been implemented in Manager or at least hadn’t last time I looked.

@Patch

Unfortunately I could not get any liquid where: filter to do anything using Manager v20.10.29

More importantly
With the newer versions of Manager, I’m not able to understand how flow control is used to control table output. Perhaps it’s just my ignorance on how to read html, or perhaps it’s a limitation of the current editor implementation in Manager.
