"Column is not filterable" on ALL columns on form grid using view as datasouce

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 7
On a custom form clicking on any column header in the header grid to filter produces the error "Column is not
   filterable" on every column — including standard bound fields like JournalNum (String), JournalType (Enum), CreatedDate (DateTime), etc.

The line grid on the same form does not have this issue - all columns are filterable.

Observations:
-The view works in table browser, all columns are filterable there. 
- The line grid with a seemingly identical setup works fine

What causes "Column is not filterable" on ALL columns of a cross-company view when used as the form's primary datasource in a TaskParentChild pattern? Is there a known
  framework limitation or a specific property/configuration I'm missing?

    Hello, see this error in the past but not remember the solution i found, honest.
     
    By the way i suggest you (what i do)
    * Check the relationship of form data source, may have a not correct join's of tables
    * Check if the data source property are set correctly in the grid and controls
    * Delete usage data
    * Delete personalization of form view

    Thank you Diego. Update: 

     Problem: When opening the form from the workspace tiles, users get
      "Column is not filterable" because the tile menu items use queries that have AllowAdd set to No on the root datasource, which prevents adding any filter columns.
     
    Fix: Set AllowAdd to Yes on the root datasource of both queries.

    Didn't remember that condition of Query, that typically is default Yes
