Overview Pages Sidebar – Search & Filter Functionality

Filters & Search screens

How the sidebar search & filter works

When you fill out a search box or use a dropdown to filter – to see results one must always click Search before the search is initiated.

After careful consideration we choose the most accessible and easy-to-develop way to search:

  1. People with a cognitive impairment could have trouble with processing this information, explicit actions are recommended.

  2. If we decide to search type we'll have to ask questions like "after how many keys, how fast, loading becomes intrusive, ..." which we want to avoid in this stage.

The screens below function as high-level examples for bestuurseenheden. To find out which filters, search boxes and information should be shown on each specific screen in detail, go tot the dedicated pages: bestuurseenheden, personen or ondernemingen & verenigingen – for both CH & ERE.

Regular state

Search results

Results screen

Example bestuurseenheden for ERE

The field for Gemeente will be power select – and we choose the single select for now. We will find out in user testing if multiple select is needed. We suspect we will need it for reporting, which is out of scope for now.

No results screen

Example bestuurseenheden for ERE

Text on no results is 'Er werden geen zoekresultaten gevonden. Kijk na op spelfouten, of probeer een andere zoekopdracht.'

Suggestion to add 'Indien een organisatie ontbreekt, meldt dit aan xxx@vlaanderen.be of klik op 'xxx' om deze organisatie aan te maken.' E-mail address to be checked.

-- Updated screen to new copy, but changed "of klik op 'xxx' om deze organisatie aan te maken." to "of [maak een organisatie aan]". Let me know what you think.

Error screen

Example bestuurseenheden for ERE

To be checked: which e-mail address will we use? And which helpdesk are we allowed to make use of – or shall we have to do support ourselves at first? PM's will ask this question on solution.

Yassin: do we have multiple support emailadresses? I will try to check this with Patrick.

Outstanding questions

None for now.
