Query Volume by Rule

This report shows the number of times that each rule triggered a query.

Study designers use this report to help identify problem areas and find unnecessary query rules.

Tips:

We recommend specifying From and To values in the Rule trigger count selection criteria field before running this report. If you don't select anything in that field, the bar graph might be hard to read if rule names are long.
For the best performance, do not select any optional filters on the Selection Criteria page.

Graphs
