4D for Mobile Tutorial – Define filter queries



Tips

For a mobile application, data is usually filtered to preserve storage space and provide direct and quick access to essential data.

With 4D, you have two types of filters.

  • A static filter to filter the data for a table. For example, limit to tasks with the status ‘in progress.’
  • A dynamic filter depends on the user’s information. For example, return only the user’s tasks.

 

This tutorial will show you how to use and combine these two filters.
