Applying Filters to the User Grid

You can use a column content filter to limit the list of users to only those whose information within a column (last name, job title, department, etc.) matches the filter criterion for the text you type. Simple filter criteria include the following: Begins with, Contains, Doesn't contain, Ends with, Equals, Doesn't equal.

Note: You can apply a filter to only one column at a time.

Apply a Filter to the User Grid

  1. In a document grid, click .
  2. Click Filter Options, select Show Column Filters, and then click Close.

  3. (Optional) To use a filter criterion other than Contains (the default), click , and then click an option.

  4. Click inside a column's filter box, and then type the text to filter by. The list is immediately limited to those users matching the filter text and criterion.

    Notes:

    • String searches are a 'start' search, meaning it considers the first portion of the text string, not a word in the middle or at the end of a string of text. For example, searching 'comp' will return results for 'complain', but searching 'plain' will not.

    • Words known as 'stop' words, such as the, for, and to do not return results.

  5. (Optional) Repeat steps 3 and 4 in a different column to further narrow the user list.
  6. At the bottom left of the grid, select or clear the filter option. The filter parameters are preserved.
