[CLOUD] Dynamic fields dosen't propose drop down list on Search Filters

asked on July 13, 2022

Hello everyone, 

On Laserfiche Cloud Version

 

We are using metadatas with dynamic fields based on an External Table configured in the Data management : Lookup tables (Because we need cascading drop down list with parents relationships).

 

  • Dynamic fields Works fine when storing a document with the template
  • but on the search filter fonction,  The drop-down lists are not dispayed
    • With a metadata type text and dynamic fields based on the look up table 
    • With a metadata type List and dynamic fields based on the look up table 

 

  • It only works With a metadata type List and no dynamic fields but only a list Item : the search displays the drop-down list

 

 

Template : 

 

Store : OK 

 

Search : KO 

 

On the One premise version, this work fine. 

So we are wondering if this is a limitation of the cloud version or a setting problem. 

 

if this is a limitation, Is this function planned in the Cloud backlog ? if yes, do you know when ?

 

Is there any workaround in the meantime, (the only one we found, is to change the fields types to “list type” with fixed value list à But we lose the cascading parents relationships) 

 

Thank you  by advance

This is a bug. It's being looked into and we'll patch it as soon as we have a fix.

For clarity, dynamic and lists fields are not expected to display as lists in the search interface. They will display a suggestion list as the user types in characters. The suggestion list functionality is currently broken for dynamic fields.

Thx Miruna. 

 

The suggestion list functionality will meet the need.

 

Do you have an idea when the fix will be deployed (This quarter, this year, or later ?)

This will reassure our potential customer to choose Laserfiche versus other solutions

thx.
