Sorting and filtering in Fusion Manage are inconsistent from tab to tab. Several important tabs (most notably the Bill of Materials and Attachments tabs) have no sorting or filtering (or it is very limited), which makes navigating a large BOM or a heavily populated Attachments list genuinely difficult. One of the customers we work with runs BOMs with hundreds to thousands of unique parts, each with one or more drawings attached. To pull the right drawings for production or procurement, they currently keep everything in a single folder on a network drive and copy out what they need by hand, because there is no meaningful way to locate and select those attachments inside PLM. The only option within the product is to download the entire set in bulk and sort through it on a local drive, effectively repeating their existing process. The fallbacks elsewhere are not much better: a browser's Find feature only matches rows currently rendered on screen, and exporting a BOM to Excel just to find a line is a step backwards. What we'd like to see: Consistent sorting and filtering on the BOM and Attachments tabs. At minimum, simple per-column filters; ideally, the same filtering a regular workspace view already offers (including richer multi-condition filtering). The same capability extended to all grid/list tabs in the system, not just these two. The ability to SAVE those filters per user (nameable and re-applied on demand, the same way a custom View works today), with the option to set a saved filter as the default for that tab. Sharing a saved filter with others would be a welcome nice-to-have. The ability to download the attachments of the filtered items (or alternatively, based on selection within the filtered items) Having spent some time searching the forums, I'd like to note this isn't a duplicate of any single existing idea. It consolidates several existing requests and adds the ability to save those filters, which is the piece that ties them together: Sorting and Filtering in BOM View (Accepted): https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-manage-ideas/sorting-and-filtering-in-bom-view/idi-p/9662378 Filtering capability in the BOM tab: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-manage-ideas/filtering-capability-in-the-bom-tab/idi-p/11949427 Sort & Filter Attachments (partially implemented): https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-manage-ideas/sort-amp-filter-attachments/idi-p/8942835 Filter on Attachments: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-manage-ideas/filter-on-attachments/idi-p/12381535 Add the ability to search managed items tab: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-manage-ideas/add-the-ability-to-search-managed-items-tab/idi-p/8732096
