How to Use Drop-Down Lists in OrderLogix Version 5.0

An enhancement that was introduced with version 5.0 of OrderLogix are drop down lists that efficiently load a large amount of data. In prior versions of OrderLogix, drop down lists would include every eligible item. For instances with many items, this would create a large load on the application in effort to populate the list with all of this data. Now, in versions 5.0 and newer, you will see filtered results in the drop-down lists available in many parts of the application.

 These drop-down lists are limited to load only 100 results at one time to decrease the strain placed on the application in order to populate the list. If you have more than 100 items available, you will only see the first 100 display. Don’t be alarmed if the item you are looking for is not included in this list. The unseen items are still available for you to select, it just requires you to take one extra step, which is the use the search bar filter.

 The drop-down lists have a built-in search bar style filter at the top of the list. This makes it quicker for you to locate the item you are wishing to select instead of scrolling through the list searching for it as was required previously. Type four or more characters that match the item(s) you are looking for, and the results will filter and display only results that match the characters you have entered, up to 100 items. 

In the example below, we are using the new drop-down list to add Tax Category to the Base Item. You can see the list is full without using the filter, but when the filter is utilized, the results narrow down to a single match:
