Working with administrative filters : Adding admin filters
 

Adding admin filters

To remove clutter and to focus on your work, you can limit the tasks displayed in your Task list by defining your own filters.
As adding a new Admin Filter is very similar to adding a new My Filter by a Business Process Server User from the Home module, for more information, see the Business Process Portal User’s Guide. The only difference in adding a My Filter and adding an Admin Filter is that, in the case of a version-specific Admin Filter, in addition to the system dataslots, you can also use the global dataslots defined for that version while defining the filtering condition and/or sorting order.
The added filter is displayed on the Filter List page, with Filter Type as "Admin Filter."
The filters you create here are added under the "Global Filters" group of the Default Filter drop-down list in the Profile page in Home module. When you select an application from the Application drop-down list in the Profile page in Home module, the Admin Filters defined for that application are displayed in the Default Filter drop-down list.
They are also available under "Global Filters" group of the Filter drop-down list in the Task List page in Home module. If you select a specific application from the Application drop-down list and 'All' from the version drop-down list, then the Admin Filters defined for all versions of that application are displayed. If you select a specific application from the Application drop-down list and a specific version from the version drop-down list, then the Admin Filters defined for selected version of that application are displayed.
