How to Filter

TIPWeb-IT allows a user to Filter data on many pages/areas.  Filtering is the process by which a user separates desired data from the entire data presented on the respective page/area by using a filter or multiple filters.  This process does not remove data from the application.  It merely makes the desired data easier to find/view.

Apply Grid Filter(s)

Most TIPWeb-IT grids have filters below the grid headers.  You may type in and/or select from available drop down menus to activate a search using the filter(s) provided.   The following example uses the Catalog grid.

1. Review the grid headers and decide how you would like to filter for the desire data
   
   In the following, we are searching for a 230 watt Sharp LCD projector.  
   

2. Under the header you wish to filter by, enter the respective data and press the enter key on your keyboard.
   
   In the following, we filtered by Product Type of "LCD projector" and narrowed the information to nine possible LCD projectors. We can easily see the Sharp model and click on the respective row to review the product.
   

3. Continue to populate multiple filters to find the respective data.
   
   In the following, we filtered by Product Type of "LCD projector" and Other #1 of "230 watt" and narrowed the information to three possible projectors.  We can easily see the Sharp model and click on the respective row to review the product.
   

NOTE:

When using drop down menus, there is no need to press the enter key on your keyboard.
