Understanding Report Filters​

Reports are generated using one or more filter conditions.

Each filter consists of four components:

  • Filter Field

  • Operator

  • Value

  • Logical Operator (AND / OR)

The available operators vary depending on the selected field.

Common Operators​

Like​

Returns records containing the entered text.

Example​

Journal Title Like "Medical"

Returns all records where the journal title contains the word Medical.

Equal​

Returns records that exactly match the specified value.

Example​

Current Status Equal "Accepted"

Returns only accepted manuscripts.

Not Equal​

Returns records except those matching the specified value.

Example​

Current Status Not Equal "Rejected"

Returns all manuscripts except rejected ones.

In​

Returns records matching any value from a selected list.

Example​

Current Status In

  • Submitted

  • Accepted

Returns manuscripts with any of the selected statuses.

Not In​

Example​

Current Status Not In

  • Rejected

  • Withdrawn

Date & Number Operators​

Greater Than​

Returns records with values greater than the specified value.

For date fields, records after the selected date are returned.

Example​
