Ability to Save Filters

We filter and extract 4 sets of data daily.  The new filter screen is more time consuming to use since you have to use a drop down instead of just clicking in the field that needs filter criteria.  Since it will now take more time, it would be very useful if we could save the filter and just open it daily and modify the date.  Additionally, if the date selection offered "logical" dates, i.e. yesterday's date, current date, current date - 4 days, that would be even more useful.

    Hi Nancy,

    Thank you for sharing this detailed feedback—it’s very helpful. We understand how the new filter experience can feel more time-consuming, especially for repetitive daily tasks like yours. I have also corrected the company name to Lifetime Brands

    Your suggestions around:

    • Saving frequently used filters, and

    • Supporting logical date shortcuts (e.g., yesterday, current date, last 4 days)

    are very valuable and align well with improving usability and efficiency.

    We agree that enabling saved filters with quick modification (like just updating the date) could significantly streamline your workflow. Similarly, predefined relative date options would reduce manual effort and improve consistency.


    Thanks again for taking the time to share such actionable feedback—this really helps us improve the product.

    Regards,
    Manoj Panda

    I selected the incorrect company.  It is from Lifetime Brands Inc. NOT Lifetime Products
