  2. On the Select Filter box, open the folder that contains the required filter.

  • You create filters using Filter Manager, for more information, see Introduction to Filter Manager in the Filter Manager help.

  • A custom folder type must only be of type Simple.

  • Some standard folders already have a hard-coded filter, for example the power cables folder has a hard-coded filter CableCategory = <Property>. When a hard-coded filter already exists, the filter definition has to be set correctly or this could result in incorrect items appearing in your custom folder. The filter definition for the custom folder should be Match all, or the criteria of the existing hard-coded filter should be included in the filter for the custom folder. For example; CableCategory = Power Cable and Conductor Arrangement = 3 core cable.
