Multiple filters in a view

[Derick_Paula]

Hello, I’m trying to create a filtered view like a google spreadsheet; I have read other posts but none of them are like what I’m trying to do.

Context:

This app was made to manage farmers and each farmer has different certifications and combinations, some are rainforest, some are Fairtrade USA, some are MARS, others are organic, and so on, and some haves combinations between those certifications.

I’m trying to make a filtered view where I can choose multiple certifications easily because this app is made for not tech-savvy users; I came up with a temporary fix which is group by status(organic or not), sort by certifications, and searching the other certification, but there is a group of farmers who have all kind of certifications and it’s getting annoying to the users.

So, I want to make a filter like those in google sheets or excel, so they can filter easily between certifications.

Can someone help me with what I’m trying to do? Thanks beforehand.
