text filter now working

‎09-05-2019 06:56 AM

I have a simple report where I use the text filter visuals from marketplace

I have a table with cca 20 column, text filter is linked to the employee name. for the empl name it is working well.

however when I create a new text filter that would be filter the employee ID it does not work. I cant figure out why

is there any limit for the text filter? like exampla 1/page? or why I am not able to filter by the empl id. I check the data format and it is whole number, so it should be work.

anybody faced this issue?
