Client Requirement

Tracking Screen v2.55 - Retain the date Range Filter when performing searches.

When carrying out a search using the drop-down options the Filters disappear off screen. Amend the screen so that the Filters remain in all cases as a combined Search/Filter facility. This change is required as several sites use repeated customer refs.

Added by SS 02/10/08 - When entering data into search option pre populated date range would be removed, however user would still be able to add dates back into the date field to execute a search .

More specific searches e.g. Stock movements with a common reference over a date range to be POD'd

Solution

When a user runs a search by clicking the ‘Refresh’ button, data will be returned according to the filters combined with any data specified in the Search field and Search By drop down list.

If nothing is specified in the search field or in the filters then the data returned will be based on the ‘From Date’ and ‘To Date’ only.

As requested, when a user enters data in the search field the dates in the ‘From Date’ and ‘To Date’ fields will be cleared, and all data will be searched. The user will still have the option of entering dates into these fields to limit the search to a specific date range. However, note that entering dates should be done after entering data in the search field, because if a user specifies a date range and then enters data into the search field then the date range will be cleared out due to the newly requested functionality to remove the dates when entering data into the Search field.

Currently, when the Search By field is used, all Trips except those in a status of PLANNED are searched and returned. When the Filter options are used, only Trips in status of ACCEPTED, EN-ROUTE or COMPLETED are searched and returned. The new combined functionality of Search By and Filters will query all trips, except those in a status of PLANNED.
