Is it possible to include filter locks on a nextworld base application through an application layout or can it only be done by customizing the application link associated with the base NW application? This is specifically for Misc. Cash Receipts, which is accessible in the Receipts composite application on the menu.

I’m not sure what you mean by `filter locks`, I’m not aware of that being a Nextworld concept - do you mean pinned filters?

Yes that was it thank you! I assume for NW owned apps the only way is to customize the application link?

Yes, I believe a customziation of the app setting (you’re saying application link, but I think you mean app setting?) is the only option.
