Filtering the list of process definitions in the Process Definitions widget

In the Process Definitions widget, you can display all the process definitions that you can access. You can filter the list of process definitions to display only those definitions that are currently of interest to you.

About this task

The way in which you filter the process definitions depends on whether they are displayed as a list or in a table.

Procedure

  1. To filter the displayed definitions, select the property that you want to filter by:
    • If your definitions are displayed in a table, move the mouse to the column header for the property that you want to filter by, and click the search icon that appears on the left.
    • If your definitions are displayed in a list, use the Set Filter box to select which property you want to filter by.
  2. For the property that you selected, specify filter criteria that are appropriate for the property type.
  3. Click the Set Filter icon to display the process definitions that match the filter criteria. The filter criteria are displayed before the process definitions list with two icons:
    • Click the Pin icon to save the filter for the current list, the icon changes to indicate that it has been saved. Click the icon again to remove the filter from the list of filters.
    • Click the Eraser icon to display the current list without the filter.
    If you save the filter, it is added to the first list in the actions bar for the current process definitions list. When you clear the saved filter, it is removed from the list of saved filters. All of your saved filters are lost when you log off.
  4. You can restrict the filtering further by selecting and specifying filter criteria for one or more other properties. The new filter criteria are added to the existing criteria shown in the actions bar of the widget.
