Using the Filter Menu

Use the Filter menu to determine the group of records that appears on the page.

There are two types of filters:

• Direct filters, such as Active Students, find all the records that meet the criteria at the time it is run.

• Prompted filters, which have names ending with a question mark, ask the user to enter the criteria they want to use. For example, the prompted filter of Grade Level = ? will return different lists of students based on the grade level entered.

  

When you use a filter, the page displays a limited set of records. Select the All Records filter to view the complete set of records again.

In the top-right corner of each page, click and select Manage Filters to do the following:

• Add a new filter
• Change the order of filters
• Edit a filter
• Copy an existing filter
• Delete a filter
• Use the Advanced Filter mode
