[piotrekkaminski]

When trying to filter data by attribute with input type = Multiple Select, no data is exported to csv file.

Preconditions

There is a custom attribute created with input type Multiple Select, 3 options enabled ("Option 1", "Option 2", "Option 3").
There is a customer in the system created with custom attribute value = "Option 1" and "Option 2".
Version 2.0

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to System-> Import/Export-> Export at backend
2. Select "Customers" entity type
3. Select "Magento 1.7 format"
4. In the grid for attribute from precondition select "Option 1" filter
5. Press "Continue" button

Expected Result

The file was exported with customer from precondition

Actual Result

1. File was not exported.
2. The error message appears "There is no data for export"

Note

The same situation with "Magento 2.0" Export format for all customer entity types

Possibly affects EE only

I can see two issues - on the export form - multiselect is rendered as a normal select, then when you pick options it is not filtered

Hi @php4umagento during testing the QA team validated the customer section is fixed but would it also be possible to fix the product filter part as well?

Steps to reproduce

1) Create product attribute with type multiselect and add to attribute set.
2) Create several product with created attribute.
3) Go to Export and select Products
4) Observe that multiselect attributes are presented as multiselect form field
5) Select multiselect attribute and any option in filter
6) Press "Continue" button
 Expected result
   - Data is filtered by selected option.
 Actual result
   - Exported all products, not looking at the filter.
