Add All | Remove All: Select to quickly add or remove all of the Available Filters to the Selected Filters area.
Operators
When filtering data, select an operator and enter criteria to determine which data to display.
See here for a list of operators
|
Operator |
Definition |
|---|---|
| Equal to (=) | Include the data equal to the value in Criteria 1. For example, if "Status" is the Selected Filter and "A (Active)" is the Criteria 1, then include all data with a Status of Active in the report. |
| Not Equal to (< >) | Include the data not equal to the value in Criteria 1. |
| Greater Than (>) | Include the data that is greater than the value in Criteria 1. |
| Less Than (<) | Include the data that is less than the value in Criteria 1. |
| Between | Include the data that is between Criteria 1 and Criteria 2. To display a range of dates, numbers, or currency fields, use the Between and Not Between operators. |
| Not Between | Include the data that is not between Criteria 1 and Criteria 2. |
| Like | Include the data that matches the value in Criteria 1. For instance, there are ten Vendors with the word Office as part of their Vendor ID (Office Max, Office Depot, Office Machines, etc.). You want to send them your change of address card, so you run a report that includes their addresses. Select Vendor ID as the Selected Filter, Like as the Operator, and enter "%office%" in Criteria 1. You cannot use this operator for dates, numbers, or currency fields. |
| Not Like | Include the data that does not match the value in Criteria 1. For instance, you want to run a report that excludes all Vendors with the word Office at the beginning of their Vendor ID. You would need to select Vendor ID as the Selected Filter, Not Like as the Operator, and enter "Office%" in Criteria 1. You cannot use this operator for dates, numbers, or currency fields. |
| In | Include the data that is equal to the values in Criteria 1. This allows you to include a non-sequential series of values in filter criteria. For example, type 123, 498, 301 in Criteria 1. (Do not use the drop-down list and make sure you type commas between the series.) The system then includes only those three values in your data. |
| Not In | Exclude the data that is equal to the values in Criteria 1. This allows you to exclude a non-sequential series of values in filter criteria. For example, type 391, 111, 210 in Criteria 1. (Do not use the drop-down list and make sure you type commas between the series.) The system then excludes those three values in your data. |
Criteria 1
Enter or select a value to compare with the item in the Selected Filter column. When using Like or Not Like, use "%" to represent any number of characters. For example, you want results showing the Accounts Receivable offset account assignments. Since you only want information on AR accounts and they all begin with "AR," you would complete the criteria as follows:
- Selected Filter: Transaction Source
- Operator: LIKE
- Criteria 1: AR%
This filter limits the results to only transaction source codes that begin with AR, while the rest of the code could have any characters.
Please note the results if you choose the Like operator and the following criteria:
|
Criteria |
Result |
|
%AR% |
Returns data with "AR" in any position |
|
AR% |
Returns data that begins with "AR" |
|
%AR |
Returns data that ends with "AR" |
Criteria 2
Enter or select a value for the end of a range if the Compares To contains the Between or Not Between operators.
Select Create to create the worksheet.
Note: The parameters entered in the Budget Worksheet cannot exceed the limit of 60,000 cells. If you receive an error message, decrease the size of the worksheet by adding filters or adjusting the budget cycles.
