Improve Filtering Options

Improve Filtering Options

Fusion Operations allows users to select filters on various screens such as the Product Menu. Fusion allows for selecting multiple properties, such as Product Family = "Materials", "Metals", and "Brackets". The current behavior when selecting multiple filtering items is AND. For example, show any item that is in Materials OR Metals OR Brackets. You get all items that belong to any of those families. I would like the ability to select OR or a different option, AND. My use case it knowing which Products are in Materials AND Metals AND Brackets. And item would only show up if the Product is in all three families. It's a small request, but considering you allow for filtering with multiple items, I wish you allowed more configuration regarding the filters AND or OR. Thanks

Thank you for raising this, @adamL79LL

I understand and agree this would be handy. However, on a side note that can help you, it is possible to add additional product parameters (which you already have, and you can find them in the products list after the product filter). Different parameter filters also work as an OR; however you could combine them with the product family.

 

Example 1: Product Family = "Materials" + Product Parameter "Type" = "Brackets". This would intercept the product family "Materials" AND products with parameter "Type" as "Brackets".

Example 2: Product Family = "Materials" + Product Parameter "Type" = "Brackets" + Product Parameter "Material" = "Metal". This would intercept product family "Materials" AND (products with parameter "Type" as "Brackets" OR products with parameter "Material" as "Metal").

 

This is not exactly what you are looking for, and I'll keep this idea open for votes. Also, beware my suggestion forces you to manage information in two places and it only helps in case you want to intersect two fields.

If needed, the support team can help you creating and filling these fields if needed.
