Filter portlet
|
The filter portlet has precedence and determines the filter values for all portlet attributes mapped to filter portlet fields. The user sees the following behavior:
- Show All selected at the filter portlet level initiates a Show All behavior for all portlets mapped to the filter portlet. Any portlet attribute that is not mapped does not have its value overridden.
- Data that displays in an individual portlet is reset, and the result set that appears is determined by the filter criteria of the filter portlet combined with the portlet’s filter criteria of unmapped portlet attributes.
- Portlets that have no mapped attributes are not affected by the filter portlet.

The portlet filter has precedence. The user sees the following behavior:
- If a user clicks Show All on the portlet filter, all the filter records for the portlet appear. Portlet filter values always override the filter values of previously submitted filter portlet requests.
