User-defined filters in the Manager

User-defined filters allow you to run the following searches:

  • Searching for a search term with placeholders within the display values of the selected object definition

  • Searching entries with an SQL condition

  • Searching for a search term across all columns of an object definition that are indexed for the full-text search
