Filter setting
Every user of Invantive Estate has access to some of the projects or even to all projects. However, you usually work with only one part of the projects or just one project. The filter helps you in all reports and screens to see and edit only the project data that are relevant to you.
The section ‘Filter’ in the screen ‘Preference Settings’ consists of a list of restrictions which are combined to form a list of projects that comply with these restrictions.
You can quickly change the filter without changing screens. See Filter.
