Changing filters for a custom report
Use the following steps to change the existing filters on a custom report.
To change filters for a custom report
- On the Reports tab, under Report groups, click Custom Reports.
- In the reports list, right-click the report that you want to change and then click Edit.
- In the left pane, click Filters.
- Create a filter by defining one or more filter expressions.
To add a new filter expression
Select a field name and operator, and then enter a value. Click Add.
To edit an existing filter expression
Do the following in the order listed.
Under Filter criteria, select the filter expression that you want to edit, and then click Edit.
Under Filter expression, edit the expression's values.
Under Filter expression, click Update.
To delete a filter expression
Under Filter criteria, select the filter expression that you want to delete, and then click Remove.
- To combine sets of filter expressions, do any of the following:
To combine two filter expressions so that both expressions must be true for the result to be true
Click AND.
For example, to find all backup jobs that failed, add the following expressions:
Status = Failed
Type = Backup
After you set up the expressions, do the following:
Click AND to combine the two expressions.
The combined expression is:
Status = Failed AND Type = Backup
To combine two filter expressions so that one of the expressions must be true for the result to be true
Click OR.
For example, to find jobs that either failed or were canceled, add the following expressions:
Status = Failed
Status = Canceled
After you set up the expressions, do the following:
Click OR to combine Status = Failed with Status = Canceled.
The combined expression is:
Status = Failed OR Status = Canceled
To combine two filter expressions into a single expression
Click ( ) +
For example, to find backup jobs and restore jobs that failed, add the following expressions:
Status = Failed
Type = Backup
Type = Restore
After you set up the expressions, do the following:
Use OR to combine Type = Backup with Type = Restore.
Press and hold Ctrl while you click Type = Backup and Type = Restore.
Click ( ) + to combine Type = Backup with Type = Restore.
Use AND to combine Status = Failed with (Type = Backup OR Type = Restore).
The combined expression is:
Status = Failed AND (Type = Backup OR Type = Restore)
To separate two filter expressions that were combined into a single expression
Click ( ) -
For example, if you used ( ) + to combine Type = Backup with Type = Restore, it is displayed on the Filters dialog box as follows:
(Type = Backup OR Type = Restore)
To make the combined expression into two individual expressions, do the following:
Press and hold Ctrl while you click both Type = Backup and Type = Restore.
Click ( ) -
After you separate the expressions, they are displayed without the parentheses.
- Click OK.
