Thank you for your feedback
PayThem uses a common list control to display lists of items. This page provides information on how to use the list controls.
Navigation
You can navigate through the list using the page controls at the bottom.
Scroll through the list by clicking the arrows (> and <)or jump to a specific page by entering the page number. Clicking the << arrows takes you to the first page, and clicking >> takes you to the last page.
You can change how many items are displayed on each page by selecting a value from the "Results per page" dropdown.
Sorting
To sort a column in ascending order, click on the column name. If the column is already sorted by that column, clicking again will sort it in descending order. The current sort column is indicated by a small up/down arrows icon.
Filtering
If filters are enabled on a list, a small filter box will appear underneath the column name. Enter the value you want to filter by and use the drop-down arrow to select how that filter should be applied.
The following are currently available. Note these options depend on the type of data you are filtering.
| String Types | Description |
|---|---|
| Contains | The value in the filter can be found anywhere within the column field. E.g. Filtering on 'pro' in the Name column would return 'Property Estates Ltd', 'Happy Professional Services', 'Bob's Nonprofit Housing Association' etc. |
| Does not contain | The value in the filter must not be found anywhere within the column field |
| Equals | The column field must match exactly with the value in the filter |
| Does not equal | The column field must not be the value in the filter |
| Starts with | The column field must begin with the value in the filter |
| Ends with | The column field must end with the value in the filter |
| Empty | Not currently supported |
| Not empty | Not currently supported |
| Numeric Types | Description |
|---|---|
| Greater than | The column field must be greater than the value in the filter |
| Greater than or equal | The column field must be greater than or equal to the value in the filter |
| Less than | The column field must be less than the value in the filter |
| Less than or equal | The column field must be less than or equal to the value in the filter |
| Equals | The column field must match exactly with the value in the filter |
| Does not equal | The column field must not be the value in the filter |

Persistent Lists
Column filters, sort orders, and page selections persist. This means that if you navigate away from the screen and then return to the list later, the list will remember your previous settings.
