Wild Card usage and more on Editor Filters

You might notice Filters tab in Requirements, Processes, Layouts and variables editors. User can create filters in this tab. These filters can be made private or public. By default all filters are private. One thing to notice about filters is, two users can’t create a filter with same name even if they are private.

Wild Card (%) Usage:

If you don’t know what you are searching or filtering for, wild cards can come in handy. You have to use ‘Like’ in ‘Operator’ combo box.

Example 1: If you are filtering for all processes that start with VA01 then you will have to select ‘Like’ in ‘Operator’ combo box and enter ‘VA01%’ in the ‘Operand’ field.

Example 2: If you are filtering for all processes that has VA01 (in the beginning, middle or end of process name), then you have to enter ‘%VA01% in the operand field.

Example 3: If you are filtering for all processes that end with VA01 then you have to enter %VA01 in the operand field.

These filters can be made dynamic so you can search for the processes dynamically.
