Wrike Data Hub: Filter Criteria Functionality.

As projects grow in complexity and datasets expand, having the ability to quickly segment and focus on specific data becomes critical. A robust filtering system would allow users to:

  • Access relevant data faster (e.g., tasks assigned to specific teams, due dates within a range).
  • Make better decisions by viewing tailored insights.
  • Save time by avoiding manual searches through massive datasets.

Proposed Features:

Here’s what I envision for this functionality:

  • Customizable Filters: Filter data by project name, status, due date, custom fields, etc.
  • Multi-Level Filtering: Apply multiple criteria simultaneously for granular analysis.
  • Saved Filters: Save and reuse frequently applied filters to streamline recurring tasks.
  • Dynamic Updates: Real-time updates ensure filtered data reflects the latest changes.
  • Export Options: Export filtered datasets directly for reporting and presentations.

The Benefits:

  • Efficiency: Quickly locate the information you need without sifting through unnecessary data.
  • Collaboration: Shared filters standardize reporting across teams.
  • Scalability: Manage growing datasets more effectively as teams and projects expand.

Let’s Discuss!

What do you think of this idea? Are there additional filtering capabilities you'd find useful? Let’s brainstorm and refine this concept together!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. 😊

Absolutely! We have the same suppliers across various jobs - would be good to be able to use different filters to pick various data sets in this area alone. The search function currently often sends back a huge list of un-ordered data... would be good to be able to narrow a focus using multiple filters

Hi Jay, thanks for your feedback! Are you referring to filters inside of a database? Or are you suggesting filters in a Link to Database field in Wrike?
Database filters allow you to filter by field type and content, as well as to combine filters with the AND operator.

Very interested in learning more!

Happy Holidays :)

Hi Marco,

Thanks for your question! Yes, I am indeed suggesting filters in a Link to Database field in Wrike. The idea is to enhance the ability to refine and extract specific data directly from linked databases for more focused insights.

Example:

Let’s say you have a "Vendor Management" project in Wrike, and one of the custom fields links to a database containing supplier details. Using the proposed filters, you could:

  1. Filter by Supplier Category: Show only "Preferred Suppliers" or "Local Vendors."
  2. Filter by Contract Status: Narrow down to suppliers with "Expiring Contracts" or "Active Contracts."
  3. Combine Filters: For instance, filter for "Preferred Suppliers" with contracts expiring in the next 90 days.
  4. Real-Time Updates: Ensure that any updates in the database, like a supplier changing categories, immediately reflect in the filtered results.
  5. Export Data: Export the filtered list for contract renewal meetings or reporting.

This would allow users to interact with database-linked fields more effectively, avoiding the need to sift through unfiltered data manually.

Does this align with what you were envisioning? Let me know your thoughts or if you have any additional scenarios where this could be useful. 😊 I am happy to connect on a Call to show some sample data I created to test the functionality.

Happy Holidays! 🎄
