Filter (definitions)

Filter definitions let you filter the data for your report. BUT there are two completely differnet type of filters, that have a different purpose:

• hidden filters
• select filters 

Hidden Filters

Hidden filters do not show up in the filter selection when generating the report. So hidden filters have NO EFFECT on select filters even if you make select filters dependend on hidden filters!

Select Filters

Select filter types are:

• search
• select
• selectsearch
• selectperiod
• selectrange

Select filters are shown in the filter selection when generating the report. Only select filters you can make dependent on other select filters.

The Report Editor is a fantastic tool to create customized reports for audit data as well as for snapshot data. But you have to understand its basic logic and its settings. Otherwise you'll be trapped in trial and errors.

Please check the following section for instructions to the report editor.
