# Filtering

## **Advanced filtering features**

The system offers **advanced filtering features**, which enable **precise data searching** and **efficient infrastructure management**. This functionality is based on **predefined system groups** and **private user groups**.

As a result, the eAuditor system is **a powerful tool**, which enables management even of **the largest infrastructure structures** in a **transparent** and **convenient**.

### **Focus (Global filters)** <a href="#focus-filtry-globalne-w-systemie-eauditor" id="focus-filtry-globalne-w-systemie-eauditor"></a>

The **Focus** function allows configuration of global filters that can be applied across the system. It permits defining predefined system filters as well as creating and managing user filters. Focus also offers the ability to automate actions based on filtering criteria.&#x20;

Each view includes an option **Focus** in the top left corner and enables quick application. Preset configuration is available in the Tools tab. [**Tools → Configuration → Focus**](/eacloud-docs-en/features/tools/configuration/focus.md).&#x20;

### Table search

Each table offers **text search**, which includes **only text columns**. Results are limited to **rows containing the searched phrase**, which allows quickly finding the required data.

The filter is available in every table where data can be viewed and edited.

### Column filters

Most tables in the system, in addition to the general text filter, also offer **column filters**, which allow precise filtering of data within selected columns.

#### **Operation of column filters**

* Above each column name there is a **filter field** – text or selection, depending on the type of value in the given column.
* Search confirmation occurs after pressing **Enter**.
* Filters are **temporary** – they are not saved after logout.
* Filters in different columns can be used **concurrently** and **they do not exclude each other**.
* Example: You can filter by a specific character string and simultaneously by numeric values.

## **Summary**

The system offers **advanced filtering features**, which allow precise searching and analyzing of data within tables. Thanks to **global filters**, **column filters** and **the dynamic search**, a user can quickly obtain the required information by tailoring results to individual needs.

All filters operate in an **intuitive** manner and can be applied concurrently, which makes the eAuditor system **an efficient tool** for managing data in the infrastructure.
