Working with scopes

The default data in each view page is determined by the filters that are configured for the view by a system administrator. Any additional filtering that you perform is called the scope of the view.

You apply a scope when you:

• Search within a search result
• Switch search methods from a saved search
• Switch search methods within a project folder
• Search for items related to items in the search result

When a scope is active, it is indicated by a bar shown in top of the navigation pane.

To refine a scope:

1. Perform one of the searches in the preceding list. A confirmation dialog prompts whether you want to keep the current scope and refine it.
2. If you click YES, the current scope is added as a level to any previous scope. If you click NO, the new scope will replace the previous scope.

To view the current scope levels:

• Click the Current Filter bar. The CURRENT FILTER dialog box will show the scope levels that you have accumulated so far.

To remove the current scopes:

• Click Remove scopes and the view will be reset.
