Some interfaces allow you to save commonly-used filter combinations for quick access.

Advanced Filtering Techniques

Multi-Level Filtering

Apply multiple filters to narrow down:
1. Filter: Category = Structural
2. Then: Severity = Critical + Major
3. Then: Status = Pending
Result: High-priority structural items needing response

Negative Filtering

Some interfaces support excluding items:
Filter: All except Pass
Result: Show only items that need attention

Date-Based Filtering

If available, filter by:
  • Execution date
  • Response date
  • Last updated

Best Practices

Begin with a broad view, then progressively apply filters to focus on specific items.
Filter by Pending status to see what still needs your attention.
Focus on high-severity items in your discipline (e.g., Critical + Structural).
When looking for findings about a particular component, use keyword search.
Reset filters when starting a new review session to ensure you see all items.

Troubleshooting
