New view filter

Available in: Repository, Tasks, and Search work areas: Ribbon > View

Please note: In the Search work area, this function behaves differently than when it is used in the Repository and Tasks work areas.

In the 'Repository' and 'Tasks' work areas

Use the New view filter function to create a new repository view filter in the Repository work area or a new tasks view filter in the Tasks work area. The repository view filters and tasks view filter are added as tiles to the tile navigation.

Repository view filter: A repository view filter is restricted to a certain part of the repository.

Tasks view filter: A tasks view filter filters the task list according to specific criteria. The criteria are stored in the respective task view filter.

In the 'Search' work area

When you use the New view filter function in the Search work area, you create a temporary view filter.

A search view temporarily saves search results and search settings. Search views appear in a bar on top of the navigation bar.

Please note: These search views are deleted when you close ELO. If you want to save a search request, use the Add favorite function, which is located on the ribbon under Search tools/Search > Save search when you are in the Search work area. Tiles are automatically created for favorites. These tiles will appear in the Hidden tiles group of the tile navigation area in My ELO after you restart ELO.
