Flxpoint’s Filters and Views help you surface, segment, and act on data across the Orders, Products, Inventory and Listings pages. This guide explains when to use filters versus views, and how to configure each for smoother day‑to‑day work.
🔍 What Are Filters and Views?
Filters narrow your list by conditions (e.g., status, channel, date). Views save a specific combination of filters, columns, and sort order so you can load it instantly later.
They streamline work by:
- Trimming noise from large data sets
- Offering one‑click access to your saved layouts
- Powering precise bulk actions on just the records you choose
🛠️ How‑to Guide
How to Use Filters
Filters let you view only the records you care about.
✅ Steps:
- Navigate to any of these data pages:
- Orders
- Products
- Inventory
- Listings
- At the top of the grid, use a Quick Filter (e.g., Status, Channel) for one‑click filtering, or click the Filter funnel icon for more options.
- In the Add Filter panel:
- Select a Field — fields are grouped (Order details, Product attributes, etc.) and the list scrolls for easy browsing.
- Pick a Condition (equals, contains, greater than…)
- Enter a Value to match.
- Click Apply. The grid refreshes to show only matching records.
How to Use Views
Views store your preferred filters, columns, and sort order for instant reuse.
✅ Steps:
- Open any data page listed above.
- Apply filters and arrange columns as desired.
- Click the Views icon (stacked layers) in the toolbar.
- Select + New View.
- Name your view, decide if it should be the default, and click Save.
