Question about crafting a custom view and its filters

Forum - Software
1

I have taken the “Policies doing nothing” view as the basis and would like to create a new view and customize the shown columns.

I noticed I cannot select to show the column “Last review Date” - I can only select “Next review Date”

Am I doing something wrong, is this a bug or is there a reason why I am not allowed to see that column?

Also, another question just arose at the same time:

I realized I can only select 1 condition and combine it with AND / OR with any number of conditions but it seems I cannot have multiple conditions on both sides of the AND / OR?

Sorry, not sure how better to describe this. Let me try like this:

works:
(1 condition) AND / OR (n conditions)

doesn’t seem possible:
(n conditions ) AND / OR (n conditions )

Example: (is_doing_nothing AND published) AND (has_no_next_review_date AND tags_contain_X)

I don’t have a particular use case for this, it just occured to me to ask if there is a reason for this?

Also, look at this screenshot. When I selected the 4th filter => “General => Description => Contains” (labelled 1 in my screenshot) I am unable to type any text into the text field, as soon as I click into that field, the cursor jumps to the input field “General => Name => Contains” (labelled 2 in my screenshot)

I checked and this behavior occurs in your demo too.

yes, i think i noticed this too. you should still be able to calculate dates based on that date, right?

yes, you can think of two blocks top and bottom and in between AND or OR. The bottom block can have unlimited statements, the first one only one. The operator (AND or OR) is fixed.

Thanks for looking into it.

Regarding the first problem with not being able to show the column “Last review Date” - I can only select “Next review Date” -

This is for a view. I want to show that column. Unrelated to any calculation or similar. I just need that column shown in my view.

OK, thanks for confirming.

Btw. did you manage to have a look at the last issue in this post?
