AVEVA Clash Manager™ 14.3 User Guide

AVEVA Clash Manager Window : Filter window

Use the AVEVA Clash Manager - Filter window to restrict the data displayed on the Clash Report and Element Reports. All of the filtering facilities are available for the Clash Report, but when the window is used for the Element Report, the facilities are restricted and the unavailable facilities are disabled and shaded out. The standard filtering (available from the Filter tab) and the advanced filtering (available from the Advanced tab) can be switched on or off separately for the Clash and Element reports.

Filter settings can be saved as named filters, this enables commonly used filters to be saved and quickly retrieved without having to reset the filter options each time.
