Hello Everyone,
I have a question regarding the search query builder in the tree view. It is
the window that pops up when you click the "Filters" button/label at top
left.
How can I modify the list of fields that shows in that popup?
Just change the tree view. You can search on all the fields of the
view except those that are not searchable (usually calculated fields)
and the client also adds some special fields such as id, create and
write date and users.
Note that you can add fields to the view but make them "invisible" so
they're searchable but are not shown to the user.
Adding filter fields with a more flexible way than changing the tree view
would be a nice feature for Tryton. In my experience, the user wants to
search by a lot of criteria, no only by the fields showed in the tree view.
This requirement is very common in party and product views.
I don't know if other people has this need and if it would be very difficult
to implement in the core of Tryton.
I'm strongly against, it is a wrong user experience to not show proof of
the result of a search.
IMHO it is not essential show proof of the result of a search in the
tree view. The users are -normally- intelligent enough to change to form
view and check the search criteria is met.
In addition, the number of fields where to search usually is bigger than
the number of fields needed in tree view. For example, with some tryton
standard modules installed, you can have 20 fields in the
product.template form view and maybe you want to search product
templates by any of these 20 fields, but it have no sense have all these
20 fields in the tree view.
In addition, currently tryton not always show proof of a search. For
example, by the definition of search_name in parties (you can search a
party by his name or his code) and in invoices (you can search an
invoice by its number or its party), you can search an invoice in the
invoice tree view by the party code, and the results don't show proof of
the search.
In conclusion, IMHO it is not essential show proof of the result of a
search in the tree view. And my experience show that it desirable that
an ERP has a powerful and flexible way to search data.
