Wildcard Characters in Name Filters (For Distributed Systems)
To display the details of all the Analog Output objects of all system devices
present in all the configured systems in a distributed environment, specify the
following Name filter in the report definition,
“*.ManagementView:ManagementView.FieldNetworks.*.AO*”. When you run
the report, the details of all the Analog Output objects belonging to all the
devices in all the systems configured in a distributed environment will display.
However, when you apply wild cards to a Name filter, the report execution may be
slower. Therefore, if you are processing an operating procedure form, report steps,
or Log Viewer on a system, reports executed on this system must have more
specific Name filters to achieve optimum performance.
Condition Filter
A Condition filter defines a filter expression that is composed of one or more filter
expressions.
Condition Filter Condition
A Condition filter condition is composed of:
Column name (Condition Name)

Condition value
Examples of Condition Filter Expressions
The following list contains some valid Condition filter expressions:
Status = “Alarm”
Status = {“Alarm”; “Alarm Acked”; “Alarm Unacked”}
Alarm Value = {12; “Text”}
Time of last Change = “Current day”
NOTE:
You cannot apply the Condition filter to Plots.
The Condition filter also allows you to create complex filters and conditions using
mathematical and logical operators, and wildcard characters. The following
operators are supported:
Mathematical Operators: Equal to (=), Not Equal to (<>), Greater than (>), Less
than (<), Greater than Equal to (>=), Less than Equal to (<=), and () In
operator
Logical Operators: AND, OR, NOT
Wildcard Character: Asterisk (*)
NOTE: The In operator () is used to filter data in a column that supports
display of multiple values in a single cell. Following is an example of columns
having the possibility to display multiple values in a single cell.
