WOs filtered in the list view: select their child WOs too

Scenario:

A user has filtered for some WOs in the WOTRACK list view. Some of the WOs are parent WOs, so the user wants to select any children of the WOs too.

Currently, there isn't a way to "select the child WOs too" in WOTRACK. Could IBM consider adding a YORN field or a button to the Advanced Search to "Include children of selected WOs?"

The logic behind the functionality might look like this:


exists (select wonum from woancestor where ancestor in (select wonum from workorder where

classstructureid = '60720'
and status = 'APPR'

) and wonum=workorder.wonum)

That SQL works, but only admins would be proficient enough with SQL to include that outer query around the base query in the WHERE clause. It wouldn't be wise to get regular users to do that. And saving queries or reports isn't what we want. We want users to be able to perform ad-hoc filtering via the Advanced Search, using whatever logic they need, and then be able to automatically wrap that query with "child WOs too" logic.

    Thank you for your feedback and ideas. Unfortunately, after evaluating this idea, we have determined that it doesn’t align with our near-term priorities and roadmap strategy. Please don't hesitate to resubmit for re-evaluation after 12 months if you feel it is still valid and important. Thank you again for your feedback.
