Filtering Report Objects

You can filter repository objects including reports, snapshots, and saved report objects to help you easily locate an object. You filter report objects by the type of object you seek. The system searches all folders in the repository for matching object types and displays them, by folder, in a tree hierarchy. A variety of filter combinations is provided for filtering.

  To sort by object types:

  1. Select View, and then Display Items of Type.

  2. Select an object type (All Items, Report, Snapshot, or Saved Report Object) to display in the repository.

  3. Optional: Repeat steps 1 and 2 to select additional object types.

To redisplay all object types in the repository, select View, then Display Items of Type, and then All Items.

You can also sort objects by clicking the column headings. For example, you can display the oldest or newest reports first by clicking the Modified heading, or display report objects alphabetically by clicking the Name heading.
