Work with the Last Modified or Executed Value Set

The system assigns the active status to a value set when you save modifications to it or execute it. Unless you save the modifications to another value set or execute it, the last value set you modified or executed remains active. This is helpful in situations when you want to access a frequently used value set.

To view an active value set:

  1. Navigate to Queries > Filters > Active.

    The FILTER VALUE SET page appears with the value set you executed or modified last.

  2. If the value set was saved to the system before executing, the name of the value set appears in the Name field.

    In addition, the name of the filter appears next to the Active Query Name label.

    To rename an already saved value set, enter the new name in the Name field, and click Save Values.

  3. If the value set was not saved to the system before executing, the text <Not Saved> is displayed in the Name field.

    You may enter the name of the value set in the Name field, and click Save.

  4. From the ACTIVE FILTER VALUE SET page, you can perform the following tasks:
    Task Description

    Modify the Active Value Set

    If required, you can modify the value set by changing the field values.

    While entering field values, if you want to remove all the values you entered, click Clear.

    Click Save Values to save the changed field values. This button is only available for a saved value set.

    Save the Active Value Set by another name

    Click Save Values As to save the active value set by a different name.

    The FILTER LIBRARY page displays all the value sets you saved to the system. See "Work with Saved Filters and Value Sets" for more information.

    Convert Active Value Set to Advanced Condition

    Click Convert to Advanced Condition to convert the active value set to an advanced condition. See "Convert a Value Set to an Advanced Condition" for more information.

    Assign Permissions on the Active Value Set

    Click Permissions to set the group-level access permissions.

    The Permissions button is only available for saved value sets.

    Change the Description of the Active Value Set

    You can change the description of the active value set by modifying the text displayed in the Description field.

    Click Save Values to store the changed description.

    Execute the Active Value Set

    Click Execute to generate a case series by using the active value set.

    Note:

    When the field values for an active value set are modified or the active value set is saved by a different name, the changes in the active value set reflect the most recent changes. The active value set also changes in case you modify the field values and execute the value set without saving the modifications.
