Description of problem:

I want to filter data in each column, right now it's working, but when I am trying to filter volume in the second column so previous column filter gets removed.

There are a couple main issues with the code:

1. The mainObject variable doesn't seem to be correct. Its not holding the search values for all the columns. It only keeps the values for the last column.
2. The search plugin needs to loop through the relevant data parameter elements for all the columns that need to be searched.

Take a look at this example from this thread. The idea with this example is it keeps track of the search state for all the checkbox columns. The search plugin loops through all the active checkbox search columns to filter the rows.

Have you looked at SearchBuilder?

Can you please fix it for my mainObject?

Its not a simple fix and would take some time. My suggestion is to look at making it an object where the key is the column index and the value is an object containing the search type and value. In the search plugin loop through the object using the key to get the column data for the evaluation. Similar to the checkbox example I linked to.
