Hello, thanks for your quick and effective response.
I have another query.
initialize a datatable with search but only filter on a single column, the table contains 7 columns I only want it to filter column 5
I want to initialize a filtered datatable specifically a single column.
I use search but it does the filtering including other columns.
I want it with column 5

<script>   
jQuery(document).ready(function() { 
   var table = $('.jet-dynamic-table').DataTable( {
       dom: '<"top"i>rt<"bottom"flp><"clear">',
       language: {
           
        },
        order: [[5, 'Dasc']],
            "paging":   false,
            "info": false,
           
        search: {
            search: 'CBA-999'
}
    } );
}); 

i want it to filter or search on a single column when initializing the datatable
thanks

Try using searchCols.
