Cloud MT – Item Filter Quick Apply: Suggested Improvements
To make the Item Filter Quick Apply feature practical and easy to use, please consider adding the following navigation improvements: 1. Keep the horizontal left/right scroll bar visible at all times, rather than requiring the user to scroll to the bottom of the item list to access it. 2. Freeze the column headings so they remain visible while scrolling vertically through the list. 3. Freeze the Item Name/Item Line column so the item being reviewed remains visible while scrolling horizontally through the various fields. These are important usability features when reviewing or correcting a large number of items. For example, I am currently using Item Filter Quick Apply to narrow our inventory to Electric Bikes so I can review how those items are categorized. Some products that are not e-bikes are appearing in the Electric Bikes results, and I would like to review their fields to determine which setting is causing them to be included. Unfortunately, the current page layout makes that very difficult. To scroll left or right and review all of the fields associated with an item, I first have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the list to access the horizontal scroll bar. By that point, the column headings are no longer visible, so it is difficult to know which fields I am reviewing. Likewise, once I scroll horizontally to the right, the Item Name is no longer visible. I can see the data in the various columns, but I can no longer tell which item that data belongs to. Essentially, the information I need is available, but the current navigation makes it extremely difficult to use effectively. Requested functionality: * Keep the horizontal scroll bar accessible regardless of vertical position on the page. * Freeze the column-heading row while scrolling vertically. * Freeze the Item Name/Item Line column while scrolling horizontally. Adding these basic freeze-pane and scrolling capabilities would make Item Filter Quick Apply significantly more useful for reviewing item data, identifying incorrect classifications, and making bulk corrections. Thank you for considering these improvements. I believe they would make a substantial difference in the day-to-day usability of this feature.

Retain Filter Selections on Find and Filter Results Pages
Currently, when a customer applies filters (e.g., size, colour) in the Find and Filter results pages and then clicks on a product to view its details, returning to the results page clears the selected filters. This forces customers to reselect the same filters, which can be frustrating and time-consuming. Requested Change: We would like the Find and Filter functionality to remember the active filters whenever a customer navigates back from a product page. For instance, if a customer selects a specific size or colour on the results page, views a product, and then goes back to the results page, the previously chosen filters should remain in place. This will enable customers to quickly continue browsing the filtered results without having to reset their preferences. Why This Matters: Improved User Experience: Retaining filter selections reduces friction, allowing customers to seamlessly continue their product search without reapplying the same filters. Reduced Abandonment: When shoppers are forced to redo filters, they may lose patience and leave the site, especially if they’re browsing multiple items. Consistency: Many modern eCommerce platforms preserve filter choices when users navigate back, which customers have come to expect as a standard feature. Better Conversion Rate: Easier navigation and uninterrupted filtering can lead to more effective product discovery and potentially higher sales. Conclusion: Preserving filter selections between page visits is a relatively straightforward but impactful improvement. We believe this enhancement will greatly improve the browsing experience and encourage customers to continue exploring products without unnecessary repetition. We appreciate your consideration and look forward to any questions or further discussions regarding this request.
