Bruno,
Thanks for adding details. Some of these exists in eCommerce component in different form. There is a screenlet that tracks last visited products etc. Similar thing can be done, but little more generic so it can be used in any application in ofbiz.

Saving Search is similar concept but delivered in different way. We have lots of screen that can be called "Advanced Search" because there are so many options. I'll like ability to save search criteria from those places. While saving user should be able to give nice name so they can relate Search with results.

Like David said, Similar thing exits for Product data model. We need to extend it to other parts of ofbiz.

Thanks and Regards
Anil Patel

Yes, Jacques there was only an "s" missing in my mail but of course I was
thinking not to the last one but to the MRU.

Yes, not only the last one but even MRU (Most Recent Used)  in top or
bottom of screen (top seems easier to use : always at hand) and from a menu (near visual themes?) with more MRUs in would be heplful. I often open a lot of Firefox tabs and finally get lost as I have not enough information to recall what I used some hours before I was stopped for another things,
pretty usual I guess ...

Anil,
I was thinking to a somehow similar feature:
I would like to have entities and UI that let the backoffice user to see
the
last item he has visited.
Those could be products, parties, facilities and so on.

Those elements could be shown in a UI (with a little icon that indicates
the
element type) with hyperlinks that take to the element.
What do you think? Is this feature equivalent to the one you say or are
you
effectively interested to the SEARCHES more than to the VISITED elements?

David,
I like product search thing. I am thinking about doing something similar
in
more generic way so we can use it in more places. We can add Save Search
facility to Find Party, find workeffort etc.

What kind of search? If you mean a product search there is already a
model
to persist search parameters and a summary of results. See the
ProductSearch* entities (if I remember right).

Hi,

Ability to save search (criteria) is commonly seen feature in lot of software. I see value in having able to do that. Do others feel the
same?
Any Ideas on what kind of data model will serve the purpose?
