Using Basic Filters in Tables
This topic describes how to access the basic filter user interface, specify filter criteria, and clear filters.
Accessing the Basic Filter Feature
You can access the basic filter feature in the table preferences panel for the Scans table and the Settings List table.
To access the basic filter feature:
-
In the Scans or Settings List table view, click the table preferences icon ().
The table preferences panel opens.
Specify the filter criteria in the FILTER area as described in Filtering by Application, Version, Name, or URL and Filtering by Date, Scan Status, Publish Status, or Scan Type.
Filtering by Application, Version, Name, or URL
You can use filter criteria to filter across the Application, Version, Name, and URL columns of data in the Scans table. For example, if you use the filter criteria "OurEstore," then all applications named "OurEstore" and all scans named "OurEstore" will be included in the filtered data. Similarly, you can filter across the Name, Application, and Version columns in the Settings List table. This procedure illustrates filtering in the Scans table, but it also works in the Settings List table.
To filter by application, version, name, or URL:
-
In the FILTER area, type the filter criteria into the Filter box.
Note: Type only one application, one version, one name, or one URL. Do not combine filter criteria in the Filter box.
-
Click OK.
The table displays the data matching the filter criteria in any of the four columns.
Tip: To combine filtering by Application, Version, Name, or URL with Date, Scan Status, or Scan Type, proceed to Filtering by Date, Scan Status, Publish Status, or Scan Type before you click OK.
Filtering by Date, Scan Status, Publish Status, or Scan Type
You can filter by date range, specific date, scan status, publish status, or a combination of any filters in the Scans table. Similarly, you can filter by date range, specific date, scan type, or a combination of any filters in the Settings List table. However, when you filter on a date in the Settings List table, you are filtering on the Modified date column. This procedure describes filtering in the Scans table and the Settings List table.
To filter by date, scan status, publish status, scan type, or a combination thereof:
-
In the FILTER area, continue according to the following table.
To filter by... Then... A date range Select a range from the Date Range list. Options are This week, This month, Last year, and Custom Range.
If you select Custom Range, type dates for the range in the Start date and End date fields.
Tip: Click the calendar icon () to select dates from a calendar.
Scan status in the Scans table Select a scan status from the Scan Status list. Publish status in the Scans table Select a publish status from the Publish Status list. Any combination of date range, publish status, and scan status in the Scans table Select any combination of:
-
A range from the Date Range list
-
A scan status from the Scan Status list
-
A publish status from the Publish Status list
Scan type in the Settings List table Select a scan type from the Scan Type list. A date range and scan type in the Settings List table Select a range from the Date Range list and a scan status from the Scan Status list. -
-
Click OK.
Clearing the Filter
Active filters appear as tiles at the top of the table. For basic filters, the filter value is listed in each filter tile.
To clear a filter:
-
Click the remove filter icon () on the filter tile.
To clear all filters:
-
Click the clear filters icon ().
Important! Making changes outside of the table preferences panel adds a save table preferences icon () to the left of the table preferences icon. Clicking the save table preferences icon saves the changes to the current view.
