Search/Filter product(s)
It’s easy to find a specific product on the grid when you have limited items, but what if you have 100s or 1000s of products or even more? In that case, you can use the search bar for fields such as product ID, name & price, etc. to find a specific product or a group of products.
If you want to find products based on particular conditions, utilize the filters. There are three filters available i.e. category template, product type & status. To filter products, click on the dropdown & select a required option in the bar.
