3.5 Working with views
3.5.8 Filter by selection and Exclude selection
The simplest way to filter the information in a view for calls is a selection of records that have the same value in a column or exclusion of records that have the same value in a column.
To select records with the same value in a column:
- find, for example, using the search feature, the table cell that contains the required information;
- right-click and in the appeared menu, select the Filter by selection item.
As a result, the view will contain only those records of calls where values are the same as in the selected cell.
You can repeat these actions by applying them to the different columns of the view.
If you want to return the table of calls to its previous state, on the toolbar, click the Previous filter icon or, select the menu: Filter → Previous filter. The view returns its previous state.
In order to exclude records that have the same value in a column of the table:
- find, for example, using the search feature, the table cell that contains the required information;
- right-click and in the appeared menu, select the Exclude selection item.
As a result, all records, which had the same value as the selected value, will be excluded.
To return the table of calls to its previous state, on the toolbar, click the Previous filter icon.
The main advantage of this filtering method is an ability to quickly apply a filter condition. The disadvantage is a complexity in creating complex filtering conditions.
