How VTiger 7 Filters Work

Using VTiger 7, you work in a module and the Filter works in relation to that module. Consider VTiger 7 filter feature as a funnel. As an input, all the records of that module are entered into the filter (funnel). The customized conditions are applied on the records and only those records are presented as an output which fulfills the condition applied to them rest are discarded. While designing a custom module, you have to name the filter. Make sure that name identifies the purpose of the filter you are designing in minimum word length. Avoid to name the filters as filter1, filter2 and so on, because these names fail to signify the purpose of the filter and can cause misunderstanding.

Using this feature of VTiger 7 filter, you can screen out the records which are of no use to you. Let’s take an example to clarify this concept. There are 1000 records in a module and all of them are related to the price of the product ranging from $100 to $1000. You want to separate records whose prices are greater than $500. If you start to perform this task manually it will take a lot of time, plus the chances of making a mistake are very high. But, if you use the VTiger 7 filter feature you just have to implement a requirement in a filter according to which only those records will be shown as output whose product prices are greater than the $500. Say there are 300 records with the value of product greater than $500, they will be filtered within minutes without any error.
