The left pane of the window contains a list of keyword fields that are options for search criteria.
Clicking on the field label adds that field to the search parameters. When the field is added, its corresponding widget appears as well.
The center pane of the window is where the filtering criteria is specified. There are a few different types of widgets used:
- Textbox
- Date Picker
- Type-ahead Picklist

Hide Empty Filters

To hide the filters, click on the ‘Hide Empty Filters’ checkbox in the top right-hand corner of the window.

A window opens with the details of the filter(s) currently applied to the Data Grid.
