Created By In List View

[nikzz]

I actually want to show users the entry created by them in List View. Since that doc-type can be seen by all the members so it can be lengthy step sometimes to add filter for created by. Why can’t we show that in list view by default. An alternate is we create a custom field and push the creator’s name (via session user) on that field when the doc is saved. But why to create another field if one field is already there (in database structure). I guess this feature should exist so as to avoid data integrity.

This can be done 2 ways. Either using role and permission so that user can only see the records created by them.

How to Save Default Filter in DocType

@glz, you can define custom hooks for permissions, into the backend. So as that way the user dont will see the data hid didnt want to see

Or the second way is passing default filter to list view. But the user will still be able to see other data if they clear the filter. For the second option refer below links.

Default filter in list view

If you can customize check this, Listview Filter Use hooks doctype_list_js to add custom script over item_list.js

Listview Filter

frappe.listview_settings['Class Schedule'] = { onload: function(listview) { if (!frappe.route_options){ //remove this condition if not required frappe.route_options = { "session_type": ["=", "Individual"] }; } } }; Check if this works?
