[Erp5-dev] Why not catalog 'instalation state' and 'building state' of BTs?

[Jean-Paul Smets]

Hi,

I recommend you to try to use or extend Folder.searchFolder API / search
columns in listbox to get the search / sort feature you are looking for.

It should be fairly easy.

The other solutions (changing state name, adding column to catalog) were
all already discussed and rejected some while ago.

Regards,

JPS.
