Setting Starting Filters

Under Starting Filter Values you can configure a set of filter values that is applied when the dashboard is first opened.

*  To specify starting filters:

  1. In Interactive Reporting Studio, navigate to QIQ Filter Properties.

    To access the configuration frame, use Sections or the Configuration drop-down list found in Dashboard Studio.

  2. In Starting Filter Values, from the Filters drop-down list, which contains a list of all local filters set for the dashboard, select a filter.

    The Filter dialog box is displayed.

  3. Perform an action:

    • If the operator is set to a value other than Is Null, select the filter values to be set, and click OK

    • If the operator is set to Is Null, select a value, and click OK

    The selected values are automatically set as starting filters.

  4. Optional: To remove a starting filter, select a filter, and click Remove Selected.

    Note:

    If Remember filter settings on startup is activated from Filter Control EIS, the filters set when the dashboard was closed take precedence over the startup filters.

    Tip:

    The startup filters are set as the starting checkpoint. See Using Checkpoint Control.
