Create a query from an existing query

The Select Query from Library page appears if you use an existing query when defining a custom term, database restriction, or query-based interactive report. The queries must have been created by you or published to you. (If you have the Administer Users permission, you can select from published or unpublished queries created by any user in your login group.)

Once you use an existing query for a custom term, database restriction, or query-based interactive report, subsequent changes to the query in the library do not affect the custom term, database restriction or report.

1. Select Create from Existing Query.
2. From the Project drop-down list, select a specific project, or select -- to include all projects.
3. From the Configuration drop-down list, select the data configuration , or select -- to include all configurations. Available queries are those that are compatible with the data configuration for the data mining run (if you are creating a custom term or database restriction) or report definition (if you are creating a report).
4. From the Origin drop-down list, select one of the following values:
   • Query—The query was created and saved from the Queries page.
   • Case Series—The query was created and saved during the creation of query-based case series on the Case Series page.
   • Custom Term—The query was created and saved during the creation of a custom term for a data mining run.
   • Restriction—The query was created and saved during the creation of a database restriction for a data mining run.
   • Interactive Report—The query was created and saved during the creation of an interactive report.
5. Click the radio button of the row for the query that you want to select.
6. Click Next.

If you are defining a custom term or database restriction, the Refine Query page appears. Optionally, you can refine the query.
