  • 1.  Datacap Navigator - Filter batches by group in the Job Monitor

    Posted Tue June 27, 2023 04:36 PM

    Hi there,

    I want to check if it is possible to filter batches, when a user logins, based on a custom column.

    I've found some documentation but I think this is not for the navigator, can anyone clarify me?

    Documentation that I found:

    Filter batches by group in the Job Monitor (Datacap Web Client)

    Ibm remove preview
    Filter batches by group in the Job Monitor (Datacap Web Client)
    In the Datacap Web Client, you can filter batches by groups in the Job Monitor based on your ADSI, LDAP, or LLLDAP group authentication.

    Creating a custom column in the Job Monitor

    Ibm remove preview
    Creating a custom column in the Job Monitor
    You can define a custom column in the Job Monitor by adding a column in a Datacap Engine database table.

    Hi Bruno Ferreira,

    You can filter batches in Datacap navigator on the basis of custom column through a custom plugin

    The only documentation available from IBM is here: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/introduction-datacap-navigator-customization

    It's not very detailed but gives you a very high level idea. We have also learnt it harder way.

    Here is a better link Bruno.

    https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/creating-custom-column-job-monitor-ibm-datacap-taskmaster-capture

    The link from Varum post is for EDS.  That's a little complicated.  

    Start with a simple custom column creation.  Follow that link above. 

    Then in Datacap Navigator or TMWeb there is a way to create save filter. 

    Here is the link to enable save filter. 

    https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/how-enable-saved-filter-section-datacap-navigator-main-page

    When you save a filter is storage it in the application.  

    Example:  C:\Datacap\TravelDocs\savedfilters

     Once you get all that down. 

    I think your question is how can I let all these save filter be touch be certain users. 

    Maybe you need to create a user preference using the json user preference.   That's all I can think of.

    You can start here. 

    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/datacap/9.1.6?topic=navigator-managing-user-settings-administratively-in-datacap

    There is a way to create a custom json file on the user preferences.

    Hi Blue Devil,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I will try this implementation but using the user preferences for this, will it work when different users enter the same machine?

    Regards,
    Bruno

    I can't say for sure but using a user preference json file you can control the user preference setting.  

    You can add which columns they can see.  Thou I can't be sure about the save filters.

    Maybe you can build a filter and copy to the savefilter folder? 

    Example:
