How to Filter the 'My Completed Results' Query for the Requisition Management module in Business Portal for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010

In Business Portal 5.1 for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010, on the Employee Center, when viewing the Purchase Requests, the ‘My Completed Results’ filter shows all completed purchase requests that have ever been ran. The question is how to reduce the number of results that are provided, so only more recent completed purchase requests are shown.

In order to address this you can edit the query that is used to pull the data into the page using the following steps:

We can modify the query used to pull the purchase request – completed results, to show only more recently completed requests, without showing all completed requests, which will speed up the query processing:

1. Login to Business Portal 5.1 for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 as the System Account or another administrator account.

2. From the Business Portal home page, click Site Actions, click Site Settings, under Business Portal Administration, click Query Organization.

4. Click on the RequistionDocument – My Completed query and then click the Move to Folder button

11. Back in the Modify Query window, for the Created column, set the filter to is equal to, and then enter the date you want to filter the results to show. For example, if you choose (Created)(is equal to)(1/1/2012), it will only show the completed purchase requests that were created on or after 1/1/2012. Click OK to save changes.
