Sorting and filtering
Sorting

Filtering
To narrow the results on display:
- Click a column header to open the filter window.
- Set a filter.
- Click Apply in the filter window.
- Repeat steps 1-3 to filter other column data.
- Click the Apply button in the toolbar.
Steps 4 and 5 allow you to set filter conditions for multiple columns. While they are optional, adding extra filters enables you to save time and makes your results overview very specific.
The rationale for the two "Apply " buttons is that you can set filter conditions for multiple columns.
