Answer 1

Use the Search defaults

Search fields and filters can be configured through the action’s context using search_default_name keys. For fields, the value should be the value to set in the field, for filters it’s a boolean value or a number

You can find a similar example in the CRM module:

• Define a filter in the search view with a default period:

  <filter name="filter_create_date" date="create_date" default_period="this_year"/>
  

• Use the filter in the action context:

  <field name="context">{
            ...
            'search_default_filter_create_date': 1}</field>
