• Please note: some basic programming knowledge when creating filters is requested.
  • If you don't know how to create a filter, but you know what you want to have filtered, then send Cargo Office Programmers a clear request by using your bug tracking system.

Description

• 1. Filter module defines in which grid type this filter is displayed:
  
  • track&trace
  • dispatch
  • whproduct
  • whlocation
  • quotation
  • batch
• 2. Give a name to your filter.
  
  • This name will be displayed in your filter option list inside your grid.
• 3. Sequence defines where your filter is placed compared to other filters.
• 4. Decide whether this filter is actice or not active.
  
  • Inactive filters are not displayed inside your grid.
• 5. Per filter you can decide for which customer this filter is displayed.
  
  • Note: if you want to display this filter for multiple customers, use comma [,] as a seperator.
    Do not use blank space in between.
  • If you want to dispay this filter for all customers, make it blank or fill in: all (lowercase).
• 6. A filter can be defined by more than one rule.
  • Whether a rule comparison is used as an "AND" or an "OR" statement is decided by this mode.
  • The AND vs OR relates to all rules, it is not possible to create AND/OR constructions using simple rules.
  • You can however construct an AND + OR filter using regular expressions.
    
    • Note: programming skills are needed to achieve this.
• 7. Add an extra rule.
• 8. Available fields to built your rules on.
  
  • Field vales in this drop-down box can be added in parameter orderFieldNames and shipFieldNames.
    
    • Note: be carefull to delete values from these parameters, they may be used in other applications.
• 9. In the drop down avalable comparison signs are listed.
  
  • If you do not know what a comparison sign is, look it up somewhere at the internet.
• 10. The value(s) of your statement.
  
  • Here we have listed some examples.
• 11. Delete this rule.
• 12. Save your new filter or new modifications of your filter.
• 13. Cancel the modifications of your filter.
