Ability to create a Hierarchy tree filter

[ccoelho]

It would be really useful to have a hierarchy filter displaying parent-child relationship. Currently when we create a filter, it just displays all the members in the entity.  If there is a relationship between the members its not possible to identify it directly in 1 filter, the only way around is create dependent filters. But that too would get tedious, as everytime we have go through multiple filters to see the members in each sub filter.

Example: If there is a relationship as below:

In this case, the table has the name and parent name as 2 separate columns.

So the filter could display members as below in a tree format which can be collapsed or expanded, such that there is a check box next to the member and user can select the individual members, or a group of members. It would give the user a clear view of the relationship between different members:

Hi @ccoelho ,

As far as I know, there is no roadmap plan for this capability.

Additionally, to utilize a "Tree Filter," you would need to prepare your data model differently. Even with an add-on, it wouldn't be an immediate solution.

If you are open to exploring third-party add-ons that can make your filter look like the image below, you can reach out to [email protected]. We would love to help you achieve your goal.

We use the tree filter plugin from Paldi and can really recommend it (and/or even better their advanced filters plugin)

@DRay Yes, for now we are using the tree filter plugin offered by Paldi and that seems to solve the problem. It would be helpful to have this in the product in the future.
