New configuration setting enables grid filtering

A new configuration setting in the Proof of Delivery Managers application can be activated to enable filtering of grid columns.

When the setting, datagridFilteringEnabled, is set to true in Admin-Settings, filtering options are available for all grids in the Managers application.

The type of filter available depends on the values in the column, for example, text, integer, checkbox, or date. Each type of filter offers several filter options, such as Contains, Starts With, or Equals. You can select Clear Filter from the grid options list to reset the filters to their default settings. Some filters offer a selection of values in a drop-down list. You can select the top, blank value to select all records, without applying that filter.

When filtering is enabled, the need to specify search criteria is eliminated in most cases. Search panes are removed in all grid views with the exception of the Deliveries view. The Container ID and Manifest ID cannot be added as grid columns, so these fields remain in the Search pane.

In some cases, a grid column does not have a filter. This is because the data is already filtered for that specific field and a filter is not necessary. For example, the Status column on the Assign Route screen always displays Assigned.

Feature activation

Set the system configuration setting datagridFilteringEnabled to true in Admin-Settings. The Managers application is reloaded automatically, and the filtering options are added to grids.
