Filtering Data
You can filter the results by dragging and dropping column headers to the top of reports. You can choose
one or more attributes when revising the view to meet your specific needs.
For example, in Devices by Status pie chart, click a status such as Critical. In the Device Summary page,
drag the Device Type and Service Tag to the top of the report. The view immediately changes to a nested
information based on your preference. In this example, the information is grouped first by Device Type,
and second by Service Tag. Drill-down through these filtered groups to view the remaining information
for the devices.
For more information, see Viewing Device Summary.
