[Courses] admin course search - additional filters

[MatthewColohan]

Problem statement:

After being with Canvas for a number of years we have a large number of course, looking for better filtering options for tracking down courses.

Proposed solution:

We have moved into year four with Canvas and our Courses in the admin area is getting long for our folks. We are looking for some feature request around this area. 1) Default view should be active terms. Is there anyway to make the default view or even an option to select just active terms. When you land on that search its all terms which is a lot of course. We have 12 active terms it be great to have a filter active terms. 2) While you can sort but status, I would love to see a filter for the status option. 3) Sub Account filter. We have three sub accounts for each of our schools. I would love to see a sub-account filter. That our admin could filter the sub-account options.

Problem statement:

We are a large institution with a lot of terms, a search option would be a huge timesaver for us.

Proposed solution:

A searchable "Terms" field would greatly improve our ability to quickly filter courses by term.
