imagine following scenario: some users in the purchasing department are only working with intercompany vendors. For these users, a view, called "IC purchases", has been created on the 'all purchase orders' form, that filters on e.g. the vendor group 'IC'. When such user adds a new purchase order for an intercompany vendor and returns to the 'all purchase orders' form, the grid is showing the PO's from all vendors (view is broken and shows an asterix next to the view name > IC purchases*. Switching back and forth between standard view and the IC purchases view doesn't to a thing, The only way to reload the correct view is to reload the entire page.

As MS is heavily promoting the use of saved views, and customers are relying on them, I think the use of the saved views should be made much more user friendly by not 'forgetting the filters'.

Side note: if, in the above scenario, such user would be creating a PO for a NON IC vendor, then I think it would be logical that the user will NOT see this order, when he/she returns to the 'IC filtered' PO grid, as it would be filtered out.
