  • 1.  Asset Templates - add filter field?

    Posted 07-15-2021 12:00
    Hi All,

    Just a quick question. It would really help to have Location as one of the filter fields when searching for Assets in the Asset Template app. Is this possible - my MX guru says that this is a back end job. #AssetTemplate #Customizations 



    TIA!

    #Assets

    Hi Rob - I did not complete the configuration, but I do think this should be possible.  Regarding the status of this as a "back end job", I'll let you make the call on my approach (or perhaps, there's a simpler way that I'm unaware of).

    My approach to do confirm:
    1. Go to Application Designer
    2. Open the Asset Template application (PLUSCTMPLT)
    3. Modify the dialog for: pluscselectassets to add your new column for Location (Note: This could be done via XML or through the UI, depending on your comfort/preference)
    4. Save the application XML
    If you go the XML route, I'd think adding something like this should work, right after the Asset # column:  <tablecol dataattribute="location" id="pluscselectassets_tablebody_2a"/>

    Good luck!
