A video overview of the Custom Filter feature can be found at this link: https://youtu.be/RTGWPUybdVo. This video is also playable below:
To start using this feature, click the filter icon located on the search bar.
If you do not have any filters setup yet you'll be brought directly to the New Custom Filter screen. Otherwise, you can select New to create a new filter, click on the name of a previously saved filter, or click Manage to add/remove existing Saved Filters.
On the New Filter screen you'll be able to choose from a list of available search fields. In the example below we are filtering out the Equipment list to show us any units that have more than 1 task that's due. Any units without tasks due, or that have only one task due, will be hidden in our list.
You can add multiple criteria to the same filter by using the +OR and +AND options. There is also the ability to name the filter and save it for future use, so that you can easily reference the same filter at a future date.
After pressing Save the filtered results will show on the screen.
To go back to your regular unfiltered results, click the red filter icon on the search bar to clear the filter.
The custom filter feature will also be available on Reports.

A new Low-Stock filter has been added to the Inventory List. This way you will be able to quickly see which parts need reordering.

A highlight will be added to the left of the row. Expanding the equipment's task list will tell you which tasks have a higher priority.
If the equipment has a Pending inspection record (this is an inspection checklist that was started and not yet completed) the name of the Inspection checklist will appear in the equipment's expanded task list.
An email column has been added to the Vendor List.
A column for the Repair Requester has been added to the Maintenance Detail report.
This is where the requester would be specified when adding a new Repair Request to the system.
