ALTERNATE TITLE (More specific to our situation):
Closed items needing a status toggle to be filtered out.
PURPOSE:
In a folder, we want to see only those top-level projects that are still open. Within those projects, we want to view every sub-item, regardless of its status.
IMPLEMENTATION:
We have a table view showing all items whose parent status is Active or Deferred.
PROBLEM:
A bunch of top-level projects also get displayed, which are in Completed status:
They are directly in the folder. So, their "parent" is the folder, which does not have a status.
CONFIRMATION:
If you edit such a "Closed" item and toggle its status to Active and then back to the same Closed status again, then it correctly disappears from the view. This confirms that it's not the filter that's wrong.
WORKAROUND:
We have not found an easy way to refresh the entire view. So, we must literally toggle every item manually. Also, can't do that safely in bulk, because they get easily mixed in with other items.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? We have other such examples, but have not investigated how to replicate this glitch.
