Search and Filters

This section replaces the previous one, named "Filters" in RMsis 1.0.0 documentation and released from RMsis 1.1.0 onwards. Search is available,

• both in the Planned and Unplanned Requirement Tables with RMsis v.1.1.0 release.
• In almost all tables and panels (where necessary) from RMsis v.1.3.0 release.

Search

The user can now search using

• Numeric part or complete Id
• part of text in the Summary / Name fields.

In case some filters (available in column headers) are already applied, initiating a search

• will search from the filtered data set.

Filters

RMsis implements filters with some common characteristics, described below:

• RMsis filters are implemented with a universal philosophy of
  • OR within a column
  • AND across columns
• A filter is indicated by the presence of an icon in a column header of a table.
• Filter can be accessed by clicking on this icon, which provides multi-select options (if available).
• The filter is applied as soon as an option is selected.
• The filter drop-down can be closed by clicking on the (now changed) icon.
   

A typical view from the Planned Requirements table is shown below.

Reset Filter

In case the user presses "Reset Filters"

• All the filters (in column headers) will be reset.
• The search text will be cleared.

Saving Filter Status

From v.1.4.1 onwards, filter status is automatically saved by the application. We expect this to create huge improvement in usability.
