Filter Item Attributes

The filter/search functionality in the Data Inventory Manager is very useful when e.g.

• deciding if it necessary to add a CDF or not
• updating enumeration lists
• want to find a field.

• It is possible to search the whole database by selecting the top node IMSMA in the left pane.
• It is possible to search in only one item by selecting the item node e.g. Land in the left pane.
• It is possible to search in only one category by select the category in the left pane.

1. Select the node/category that you would to search in.

   Wait until the window is refreshed which could take a few minutes if the top node is used.

2. Enter the search criteria.

   Note that the Data Inventory Manager filter is not case-sensitive.

3. Click the Apply button.

Wait until the window is refreshed which could take a few minutes if the top node is used.

Examples of filters:

• which field names contain Compaction
• which enumeration lists contain Low

Selecting a different category or item in the left pane applies the filter to the selected category or item until you clear the filter.
