How to add a new icon to the Search Grid? or modify the default simple search

Hello,

Passing in a dynamic date like the current date isn't currently possible in either the Simple or Advanced search modes. There's an old forum post that contains some sample code for how to pass in parameterized dates, but the suggestion there was both written for Aras Innovator 9.4 and modifies files in the codetree.

You can look at the code in the forum post for inspiration, but I'd recommend creating your own custom search mode to avoid modifying existing codetree files. You can check out the Custom Search Mode community project for an example of how to create your own search mode.

Thanks for your reply and i found a way to accomplish what we needed for the POC. I just used onBeforeGet event and a method to filter the query or modify it and pass the today's parameter and it worked, I hope this is fine for us now. Custom Search Mode looks little advanced to me.
