List with active products only
Hi all,
I'm trying to figure out how to show active products from a list of all products including historic, non-active ones.
I currently have 2 modules: a module dimensioned by the product list and time (years), with a boolean for active / non-active and secondly a calculation module dimensioned by the same product list. What I'm struggling with is combining the two i.e. in my second module, showing the calculation with only active products.
Am I on the right track? or should I create a list subset?
If anyone can please advise, much appreciated.
Thanks in advance of your help,
Belinda

if you want to save space and performance, a subset is in order.
Otherwise, a small module, a filter is enough.You can import into the list to create the subset, using the boolean you have in the module 1 (create a view filtering on that boolean as well)

Thanks Nathan. Got the import to work (although took me a couple of times) and the calc module is now showing only active products.

so you can achieve it in two ways
1. if you want to show only for that module the active products, crate a boolean filter via the boolean property of list and make a saved view.
2. in case there are some active products which are to be used separately for calculations , you can create a active product list subset, in list go to subset and create the subset, then either you can manually tick items which should be part of subset or import , then that subset can be used as a separate list in the modules
