Attribute filtering

Overview​

Select the Attribute tab in the Filter conditions panel.
There are three attribute categories:

  • Case attributes: columns whose values are the same for every event within a case. This tab also supports derived attributes such as activity count, rework count, throughput time, and conformance status per case.
  • Event attributes: event log attributes that are not case attributes.
  • Custom attributes: attributes created using Custom attributes. They are used in the same way as case attributes.

Features​

Filter types​

Attribute filters support three data types:

  • Numeric
  • String
  • Date

Numeric​


❶   Set a numeric range and click Set to apply it.
❷   Select a numeric comparison operator, shown as equals by default, then enter a value to filter the results.
❸   Select one or more attribute values using the checkboxes. Select all selects every currently displayed value.
❹   Invert the selection to return results outside the specified range and selected values.


Note

Comparison operators and range filters are available only for numeric attributes.
Results include both values within the selected range and individually selected attribute values.

String​


❶   Select one or more entries in the checkbox list.
❷   Enter a column value in the search box and press Enter to display values containing the search text.

Date​

Date filters support range selection and attribute selection. Range selection is selected by default.

  • Range selection: select a date range.

❷   Select the start date.
❸   Select the end date.
❹   After selecting a valid date range, click Finish to view the chart.

Important

  • Choose a valid date range. The start date must not be later than the end date. Otherwise, an error appears and Finish remains disabled.
