Filter

The Filter window controls which elements will be retrieved from source data. Filtering can be used to limit the number of rows displayed in the grid when a large number of matching elements are present in the source data project.

Configure the Filter window

1. To display the Filter window, click Filters on the main toolbar.

   

   Two types of filters can be entered:

   • The first is on attribute values.

   • The second is on the evaluation of a PML expression.

2. Click the appropriate Add Filter to add a row.

3. For the attribute filter select the attribute, operator and value.

   The available operators will be appropriate to the data type of the selected attribute.

4. For the expression filter enter a PML expression.

   Note: Multiple filters will be joined with AND when generating the query.

5. Click OK to save the filter.

6. To delete a filter, select the row and click Delete Filter.

7. To re-read the data from source data and repeat the compare process, click Refresh in the toolbar.
