Adding new filters:

  1. Click the Filter icon.
  2. From the pop-up window, click the +Add filter button.
  3. This will open a list of columns in the current inventory which you can add as individual filters. Even columns that are hidden are able to be used for filtering.
  4. To make your selection, click the Column name from the list.
  5. Next, set your criteria (for example "contains" or "doesn't contain").
  6. Continue to add filters as needed. You can add multiple filters for the same column with different settings. 
  7. When you are happy with the selected filters and their settings, you can apply them by clicking the blue Show results button.

Note: Different inventories will have different filters available as the filterable options are set by the columns.


Deleting filters:

You can remove any filter using the Delete button (trash can icon) on the right or remove all filters at once using the Clear button as shown in this picture:
