Filters
The Filters tab allows the report writer to activate additional filters to the report query.
Any filters here are run after the filters in the DataBlock report query are run.
Figure 33Creating a filter
To add a filter you need to activate additional filtering by checking the “Activate additional
filtering” box.
You can create filters by selecting the list of fields and filtering them by the expression
operators (+ < <>, and , or, etc.). For example to view salaries above 60,000, double-click
on Employees.salary, click >, then enter 60000. The resulting filter is shown below.
Figure 34Filtering salaries above 60,000
Click OK and run the report to view the application of the filter.
The Filters tab allows you to activate
additional data filters at the report level
rather than having to modify the WHERE
clause of the DataBlock's report query.
Although in this example filtering is done
using only one field, a filter can consist of
multiple fields with associated operators
(=, <, <> ,etc.)
