Quick Filters (previously Saved Search)
Overview
Many BLOX NXT applications provide an option called Quick Filters (previously named Saved Search in legacy BLOX CMS). Quick Filters allow users to save frequently used search criteria and quickly reapply them from the search interface, reducing the need to rebuild the same searches repeatedly.
Quick Filters are accessed from the Quick filters dropdown in applications that support search. Filters are organized into My filters and Shared with Organization tabs and can be reused, shared, or set as a default view.
This section provides an overview of how to create, use, and manage Quick Filters.
