System filters for Reports
|
Note that all filters for reports are case-sensitive. The characters ? and * can be used, where ? is translated as any one character, and * as any number of any characters; for instance, typing A?9 as filter would refer to records that start with A followed by any character and have 9 as their third character, like A19, Ab9, A-9, but typing A*9, would refer to records that start with A and end with 9, like A19, Ab9, A-9, A0000009, ABCDE9. |
The system filters available in the Filter settings section of the Report batch pop-up are:
| Filter | Description | Available by default? | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
Record name (Text box) |
Optional to use. Any record name(s) entered here will be included in the report. |
Yes* |
|
Exclude record name (Text box) |
Optional to use. Any record name(s) entered here will not be displayed in the report. |
Yes* |
|
Main record (Selector box) |
Mandatory to use (i.e., it is not possible to leave the record’s name box empty). One record name of the main table must be selected here. Once this is done, the report is queued, and the generated report file will contain only the selected record, and all the related records that are setup in the report configuration, if available. |
No. The administrator must set proper setting to enable this filter. *Once enabled, the first 2 filters "<Table name> record name filter (as text box)" and "" are disabled. |
