The List in the view displays calculated column values correctly, but when I filter the same column it shows the formula instead of values. How can I resolve this to show calculated values in the filter.

My formula in the calculated column is -

="<img src='/_layouts/images/blank.gif' onload=""{"&" var day=new Date();"&" var SPday=new Date(); "&"  SPday.setFullYear("&YEAR(ITGCreationDate)&","&MONTH(ITGCreationDate)-1&","&DAY(ITGCreationDate)&");"&" var m=Math.ceil(Math.abs(SPday.getTime()-day.getTime()) /(1000*3600*24)); "&" this.parentNode.innerHTML=m; "&"}"">"

And here is the display of filter, showing formula, not values.

enter image description here

And this image is of the same calculated column, without filter, showing value. enter image description here Thank you.

As mentioned here, using javascript in calculated columns has been deprecated

On June 13th 2017 all SharePoint calculated columns with HTML markup stopped working

In your calculated column you have an image. You can not filter by image.

You could use another calculated columnd and put inside the value that you expect to be filtered.

  • My calculated column, 'Aging', is not an image. Data type = Number. What you are seeing in the filter display is the Formula in the Calculated column, which is the problem here. I want to display the value not the formula.

What is your "Data Type" for the Calculated column? Please select Number as your type in calculated column for showing images in Calculated columns.
