Selecting Report Filters

When you select the report you want to view from the treeview, you can select filters before MessageStats renders the report. After the report is rendered, there are two ways to change the filter options:

•

Select the Show Filters bar at the beginning of the report to change multiple filters.

•

Use the Quick Filter bar at the bottom of the report to further select specific data within the resulting dataset.

If you want to save a report query with specific filters applied, select the Save Report Settings option.
