How to filter records / status?
The Filter Application Screen is designed to help users efficiently search, view, and sort specific records based on various parameters. This feature is especially useful when dealing with large volumes of data.
Screen Overview
The screen is divided into three main panels:
-
Select of columns (Left Side)
-
Filter columns (Middle)
-
Sort (Right Side)
It also contains buttons at the top for saving, downloading, resetting, and navigating to back.
1.Select Panel :
The Select panel allows users to choose which columns should be visible in the results view. By default, all checkboxes are enabled. If you uncheck the main 'Select' checkbox, it will remove all selections. You can then manually choose the specific columns you want to view by ticking their respective checkboxes.
Below is a list of some examples of available columns for reference.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Status | Shows the bill status (e.g., Billed, Cancelled, Draft) |
Type | Displays the bill type, usually "SB" (Sale Bill) |
Id | Unique identifier of each sale bill |
Date | The date when the bill was created |
Bill From | The source entity creating the invoice |
Bill To | The customer or entity to whom the bill is addressed |
Total Taxable Value | Sum of taxable amounts in the bill |
Total Non-Taxable Value | Sum of exempted or non-taxable amounts |
Total Tax | Total tax applied to the bill |
Total Value | Final amount including taxes |
Biller | The user who generated the bill |
Approver | The user who approved the bill |
2.Filter Panel :
The Filter panel is where users input criteria to narrow down the bill list. This helps locate specific records quickly.
Filter Field | Function |
---|---|
Status | Dropdown to select a specific bill status |
Id | Enter a specific bill ID or partial match |
Date (Range) | Choose a date or date range using the calendar picker |
Bill From | Select the billing entity creating the invoice |
Bill To | Select the customer/entity receiving the invoice |
Filtering criteria can be combined. For example, you can search for all “Billed” status bills from “MAL - BLR” between 1-June-2025 to 30-June-2025.
3.Sort Panel :
The Sort panel lets users define how the filtered records are displayed — ascending or descending.
Each field has a “NONE” button that can be toggled:
-
Click once to sort ascending (e.g., A–Z, smallest to largest)
-
Click again to sort descending
-
Click again to clear the sort
Sorting is available on the same columns listed in the Select panel.
