Filters selectively limit the rows that are displayed in the grid. Narrowing down the data helps in viewing pertinent information at a glance while disregarding more peripheral data. To apply a filter to a grid:

1.Hover over a column header. A filter menu button appears on its right side. Click on the button. A check list of the unique values for the column is displayed.
2.Select one or more check boxes to indicate which records to display. Example: selecting "Sparks" shows only clubbers in Sparks. Clicking "Sparks" and "T&T UA" shows clubbers in either club.
3.When finished, click out of the check list drop-down. The filter is displayed above the grid and the rows of data showing in the grid are adjusted.
4.To remove the filter, click the red 'X' button next to the filter display above the grid.

GridFilterExample

Additional filters can be added by selecting another column value. For example, to see a list of only the Female clubbers in Sparks and T&T UA, click on the filter button in the Gender column header, then use the drop-down check list to select "Female".
To temporarily disable the filter, click the check box toggle next to the filter display above the grid.
To customize the filter beyond the header drop-down menu options, click the Customize... button found on the right side of the area above the grid (with a filter already in use).

Icon-Info

Some filters are common within a Module so are included as Show drop-down menus above the grid. For example, in the Check-in Module, select to show Clubbers, Leaders, or Clubbers & Leaders. These Show menus are for convenience but work the same as the column header filters.
