Group IDO Filter Example

Your customer BigCycle (customer number 89765) has 20 employees that are allowed to log into CloudSuite Industrial through a web portal to check the status of their orders. Instead of setting up a separate IDO filter for each login, you can set up a group called BigCycleLogins and set up all 20 users as members of that group. Then you can create a filter for the group. To do this, you would set the fields as follows:

Field Setting Notes
IDO SLCOs The filter applies only to the SLCos IDO. (In order to for them to view details of the order you would also need to set up a similar filter on the SLCoitems IDO.)
User   Leave blank so the filter applies to all users.
Group BigCycleLogins The filter applies to all users in this group.
Property CustNum The property whose value will be compared is SLCos.CustNum.
(Operator) =  
This Value Literal  
(Literal) 89765 This literal value is compared to the value of the CustNum property.

When you click Add This Clause, the pseudo-SQL query that displays looks like this:

(CustNum = "  89765")
	

After you activate and save the filter, any user in the BigCycleLogins group who logs into CloudSuite Industrial and requests data from the SLCos IDO will only see records where CustNum = 97765.

If you have 10 different customers who have several users each with CloudSuite Industrial login access, you could create a group for each customer, and then create 10 "group" IDO filters on the SLCOs IDO (one for each customer group).
