Advanced Filters

You can use the Filter Editor to visually create advanced filters that contain multiple and/or clauses and advanced comparisons.

 

If you have a case sensitive database, the values in the filter editor you are searching for must be an exact match of those that are stored in the database.  So if the SOP type is stored as ‘Invoice’, search for ‘invoice’ may return no result.
