Basic filters
The basic filters are designed to quickly filter down the product list, based on simple criteria. Each filter consists of three elements:
- An attribute or product property
- A filter operator
- One or multiple filter values
When adding a filter, the system will present the user all possible steps, in order to make adding filters as easy as possible.
Standard filters & attribute filters
There are two main types of filters which can be added:
- Standard filters
- Attribute based filters
The following standard filters are available:
| Filter name | Purpose | Possible values |
|---|---|---|
| Unique name | Find products by their unique name | Any value |
| Product name | Find products by their product name | Any value |
| State | Find products that are either published or not published. | PublishedNot published |
| Category | Find products within a specific category, or products that are not placed in a category yet. | All known product categories |
| Has master | Find products that either have a master product, or products that don't have a master product. | Has masterHas no master |
| Has variants | Find products that either have one or multiple variants, or products that don't have variants. | Has variantsHas no variants |
| Is bundle | Find products that either have bundled items, or products that don't have bundled items. | Is bundleIs not bundle |
| Is part of bundle | Find products that are either added as bundled items, or product that are not in a bundle. | Is part of bundleIs not part of bundle |
| Is bundle item of | Find products that are added as bundled items in a product bundle. | Any product |
| Created at | Find products by their creation date | Any datetime value |
| Last updated at | Find products by their most recent modification date | Any datetime value |
Filtering within the currently selected segmentation
When adding a filter for a segmented attribute field, the basic filters use the segment that matches the currently selected segmentation.
For filters that use segmented attribute types supporting a default value (fx. PTranslatedStringD), the default value will be used if the segment does not contain a value.
If the currently selected segmentation contains a translation culture English, then the basic filters will match the filter value with the English segment of attribute fields that are translation culture specific.
A filter on a calculated attribute uses the result for the currently selected segmentation, limited to the dimensions the result varies by. It does not fall back to the default result.
Handling multiple fields
When adding a filter for an attribute that contains a single field only, this field is implicitly used by the system, without having to select it first.
When adding a filter for an attribute that contains more than one field, a field selector is presented before the filter operator can be chosen.
