Filtering is a way to limit the number of lineitems line items shown in the list. At any given point the database contains potentially thousands of records of lineitems line items so in order to make tracking more efficient, it is necessary to apply one or more filters to make it easier to find the right lineitemsline items.

Filters can be very simple, ie. to show lineitems line items with a certain status. They can also be extended to include two or even more parameters such as linetimes with a certain status and a deadline tomorrow.

...

So in a human language at statement like “show me all lineitems line items that have the status “booked” would translate into filter lingo as “Status equals Booked”.

Extending the statement to “show me all lineitems line items that have the status “booked and the deadline is tomorrow” would, in filter terms, look something like “Status equals Booked” AND “Deadline is tomorrow”.

...

The last sentence above is an example of a filter that combines to individual statements. In this case the connector is the “AND” meaning that both filters apply to the lineitems line items shown in the list.

It is also possible to define a filter where either the first “OR” the second statement apply to the found lineitemsline items. “AND” and “OR” are the so-called logical operators that define how filters can be combined.

...

Filters can be saved, modified and shared with member of other groups. This is handy if you have created a great filter that more users will need. We’ll discuss how filters are saved and shared below.

Filtering by chips

In X1 filters are represented by one or more chips in the search bar above the list. Filters are color coded as follows:

Chip color

Purpose

🟠 (blue star) Orange

Advanced searches

Saved filters

🟣 (blue star) Purple

Filters inherit from a Workbench

INFO: If you use multiple advanced searches they are applied with an “AND” operator between them. Therefore it is only possible to add one specific advanced search pr. workspace. If you want to use “OR” as an operator you have to create a saved filter for this purpose.

Saved filters ( blue

...

chip (blue star) )

A saved filter is shown in the search bar as a blue chip and can contain a combination of multiple advanced searches. This can be a benefit when ie. filtering doesn’t take to much space up in the search bar and/or they can contain complex conditions by using “OR” as an logical operator instead of the default “AND”.

chip (blue star) )

In different workspaces - for instance Ad tracking and DAM (Digital Asset Management) - you will see black chips which are added to the search bar by the system.

...

The purpose is to enable functionality that is required for the purpose of the workspace. In the Ad tracking workspace, for example, the black chips enable users to toggle creatives that have or have not yet been assigned to a lineitemline item. Ih this case, the black chip offers a switch that toggles Assigned vs. Unassigned modes.

and then selecting the various filtering options suggested. X1 helps to complete the filter by suggesting the various options available in each step of the creation of the filter.
