In Advanced Search, there's no way to search both active and inactive products

[Gilles Lehoux]

When viewing a Product List, in the top right corner, in the search box, in it's drop down menu, under Advanced Search, select criteria Active, you can choose either "True" or "False", but sometimes you need "Both". If you are searching for a product and you don't know whether it is active or inactive, it forces you to perform the search for both values. If there is more than one criteria with the same situation or even with more than one possible value then the number of searches required increases quickly.

Until the advanced search criterias are added to a search, the results list ignores them. The one exception, that I know of, is the Product Active True/False criteria. The default is Active=True.

In every case throughout OpenERP where the search box is present, if the default search list is not the full list then whatever criteria is in effect there must be a way in Advanced Search to turn it off in order to get access to the full list. In the case of Product Active, the option would be "Both" (Both True and False).

I think you can do it simply adding a condition in the advanced search:

- Unfold Advanced Search
- Put Active is False.
- Click on 'Add a condition'.
- Put Active is True.
- Click on 'Apply'

Yes. That's good enough. I see it now. Thank you.
