What is constant selection..

Answer / rakesh nagpure

In the Query Designer, you use selections to determine the
data you want to display at the report runtime. You can
alter the selections at runtime using navigation and
filters. This allows you to further restrict the
selections.

The Constant Selection function allows you to mark a
selection in the Query Designer as constant. This means
that navigation and filtering have no effect on the
selection at runtime. This allows you to easily select
reference sizes that do not change at runtime.

You cannot select an entire restricted key figure as a
constant, only its characteristics.

What is constant selection..

Answer / kumar

This feature allows you to mark a selection of specific value or all values of characteristics in the query designer as a constant. Navigation and Filtering has no effect on this selection during run time.
For example, if you want to report a product sale in reference to a product group rather than all the products, you make the product group as the constant selection; any frill down, navigation, filtering will not have any change in the sales quantity for that.
