If it is not the intended behavior why to define hierarchical categories then? It was possible and ok in version 5.

Consider the following case: Define partner categories as follows: man man->thin man->thick woman woman->thin woman->thick Now if you have a set of partners, you can define a filter on "thin", on "thick" but not on "man" or "woman" or "woman thick". This means that you cannot find back a thin woman in a filter for example. I believe this is an unwanted limitation of the filter mechanism. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
