Creating Local Filters

Using Build Dashboard to create local filters is equivalent to setting filters in the QIQ Filters Properties frame, (see Using the QIQ Filter Properties Frame).

Note:

The Local Filters section is only available on QIQ Filter Properties if Webdash is not available in the Interactive Reporting document. Where Webdash is available, create the local filters using the Build Dashboard frame.

*  To use the Build Dashboard frame to create local filters:

  1. In Interactive Reporting Studio, open the dashboard created from the Webdash template.

  2. In Create Local Filters, select a results section.

    The results columns are displayed.

  3. Select Columns.

  4. Move selected columns between Columns and Local Filters by clicking Next button and Back button.

  5. Click Apply at this point in development, or build your dashboards before clicking Apply.

  6. Navigate to another dashboard frame, and verify that the local filters function correctly.

  7. From Filters on the top panel or Quick Filters, select and set a filter.

    The local filter selected in Build Dashboard is displayed in the Filters or Quick Filters, and the dashboard data changes to reflect the selected filter.

  8. Save the dashboard.

Tip:

To reorder local filters, use the Filter Aliases Properties Frame. See Filter Aliases Properties Frame.
