The Advanced Search Filter allows you to refine your search results using a simple menu system to select your search criteria. To get started:

* Click the text box and a menu will appear.
* Using your mouse, finger, or the Up and Down arrows will allow you to select your search parameter. For example, "Site".
* Next, select your comparison operator. Depending on your search parameter, you may see:
  * \= (equal)
  * like
  * \> (greater than)
* Select (or type) your search value. For example, the name of a Site.

Once selected, the search parameter will be applied, and the data in your report will be automatically refreshed.
