Managing Filter Sets

You can view, create, and save multiple collections of filters, known as saved filters. You can define a particular saved filter as your default when you open planners, and rename saved filters. You can toggle saved filters to return results based on their different search criteria, or update saved filters by replacing existing criteria with new filtering criteria.

Note:

You cannot edit the filter attributes of a saved filter set. We recommend you re-create a new filter set based on the original. Modify the filter set’s attributes and save the new filter set. You can then optionally delete the original filter set.
