To Apply Filters

You can set filters to apply to Documents, Tags, and Change Request Dashboard reports, to refine the report results. Applying filters can reduce the amount of data that appears in a dashboard report.

Note: Reports display counts of all objects, regardless of whether your user account has access to those objects. In addition, filter and report focus options are not validated against user permissions.

Follow these steps to apply one or more filters to dashboard reports.

Launch the ALIM Web Dashboard.
If you want to filter for a specific project, begin typing the project number in the Project box until the list displays the project for which you are searching, and then select it from the list.
Note: Only authorized projects may be included in a report.
If you want to filter for a specific organization, begin typing the organization name in the Organization box until the list displays the organization for which you are searching, and then select it from the list.
Note: Organizations must be defined as "Originator" in the relationship of a document, tag, and change request, in order to be included in a report. This is determined by the value of the ReportOrgFilterRespType setting, in System Settings > System Preferences > Reporting.
