Filter Overview

You can control what data appears on most ServiceCEO pages by using a filter. A filter limits what data is displayed on a particular page based on criteria that you define.

To apply a filter to a page:

  1. Navigate to the page to which you want to apply a filter.

  2. The Filter button is located in the center of the toolbar. If the page does not contain a Filter button, no filter can be applied to this page. To determine if the filter is active or not, see the graphics below.
