Hello, I’m new all this and i’m trying to add a filter to where the inventory app I’m trying to create only display things in a one-by-one flow. But I can’t seem to find the Filter option under the Data tab or the “fx”. Did it happen to move? Below is process list I was provided: Add a filter to show one item at a time: - Click “Add Filter.” - Field: “Item Order” (from Count Item). - Condition: “is” (equals). - Value: Click the “fx” icon, select “Control” sheet, and choose “Current Item Order” (Control!A1). - This ensures the tab only shows the item whose Item Order matches Control!A1 (starts at 1). TIA for the help! ---

Those instructions make no sense. Where did you get them from? Please add some screenshots so we can better understand what you are trying to do. ---

I got them from Grok…lol. I’ve attached a screenshot of the steps it told me in order to work in Glide. I’m trying to make it so where the app display’s inventory items to take a count for one-by-one. ![Screenshot 2025-03-06 002245](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/d/5/d5d11296f087bbce20536ac09bf725250b3de3b3.png) ---

hehe, well I’m not interested in a screenshot of what the AI told you, because that’s obviously wrong. I want to see what you have in Glide. Show me a screen shot from the data editor, and one from the layout editor so I can see what components you are working with. ---

Ah I see. I don’t have much yet, but I’ll attach it. Here’s what I’m trying to do: Inventory App for a my parents restaurant to where the app will have input one-by-one items for them to enter the Current Count. The Control Tab is meant to keep items in Item Order set(1,2,3, etc). ![Screenshot 2025-03-06 235826](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/b/9/b96ec90d19591323543b990906033a84d8d107a3.png) ![Screenshot 2025-03-06 235813](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/e/2/e21fd6442ca0c980190d907e47c7b8034c0a083e.png) ![Screenshot 2025-03-06 235804](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/a/1/a1b23f98e6a838b4c0ba5b2b2a1e0131b0316340.png) Inventory is taken twice a week(Thursday and Sunday), so a Prior Count will be present. The app will calculate how much to reorder based on a Min on Hand setting. The app will also provided a suggestive ordering based on past usage calculations. After all inventory has been taken, the app will summarize what to order. ---

So where is it that you are wanting to apply filtering? ---

Why do you need this in a one-by-one flow? ---

I was hoping to apply it on the beginning page? So it filters to only items that need inventory count taken. ---

It would be much easier for my parents and their staff to do inventory one-by-one flow vs a whole page where the font/text is really small. How i imagine the app to be was: 1. Start Inventory Button 2. Current Day Selected(if it’s any day other day Thursday or Sunday and error will occur) 3. Inventory begins on Item # 1 in a category(ex. Milk under Dairy Products) 4. Page will show Prior Count #, a field to enter Current Count, and a area that show’s Average weekly Usage with a Next Button(clicking the next button saves) 5. After all Inventory that needs count is completed, press Submit and it will spit out a summary page of everything needed
