Nick talks about some common use cases for custom filter functions and then explores how we might use them creatively to improve upon our user experience even more!

Custom Filter Functions provide the ability to make functions that will dynamically calculate a value for a filter using high level code.

All built-in functions are listed here.

To show only data that matches certain criteria, filters can be added. Filters can also improve performance by only including relevant information. There are two kinds of filters that may be applied to an ExpressView: Standard and Top/Bottom.

Filters narrow the scope of reports by restricting the data by specified criteria.

The Filters menu in the Dashboard Designer toolbar is where filters are created, modified or removed, and imported prompting report filters can be modified. Use the Filters menu to add interactive filter tiles to the Dashboard Canvas.

The Filter Settings provide control over what filter options are exposed to users and how the dropdowns within filters behave.

Runtime filters and parameters can now be modified via the JavaScript API prior to a report's execution.

Custom Options allow for the definition of settings that users can modify on a per-report basis in the Report Designer. Options can be accessed during report execution by Server Events or Custom Functions.

Administrators may create additional custom functions using high level coding languages which will be accessible to end-users of the Report Designer.

In this video, we discuss filters in the Report Designer, which allow us to narrow down the amount of data being displayed.

This reference guide describes the structure of the base configuration file (typically WebReports.xml), for all nodes outside of the node. Use this guide if you build or edit your config XML directly, without using the Admin Console.

The Exago Administration Console, or Admin Console for short,  serves as a user interface to set up and save administrative preferences. Use the Admin Console to create and modify a base session configuration file.

The sections of an Advanced Report define its appearance and pattern. Specifically, sections determine how frequently cell contents are repeated.
