Commonly Used Features

Below is a quick reference guide regarding tracking numbers in Analytics, filtering, sorting, downloading data, and sending reports.

Tracking Numbers in Analytics

Throughout Analytics you can drill down into visualizations to see the underlying data. In most cases, the tracking numbers related to that data are listed. You can click the tracking number to navigate straight to the work order details in Service Automation.

Filtering Dashboards

On top of the report are all-inclusive filters to help you hone in on key data. All reports on the page are affected by the criteria set in these all-inclusive filters.

The filter criteria for each dashboard may differ. Filters reset to the default when the page is refreshed.

 Click here to expand instructions on how to filter.
⦿ How to use Filters

  1. Click filter field to show the criteria.

  2. Select the desired criteria to include or exclude:

    1. To Include criteria: select is equal to, contains, starts with, or ends with, and then begin typing the criteria in the picklist. Select the desired criteria (or multiple criteria) from the picklist.

    2. To exclude criteria: select is not equal to, does not contain, does not start with, or does not end with.

      Is null depicts the absence of data in a data set. Conversely, is not null depicts the presence of data

    3. To include or exclude data without a certain data criteria — for example, to select data without a Region or District assigned in Service Automation — choose is blank / is not blank.

    4. To add more options, click the plus sign (+) next to a field to add another option to the filter. The new option will appear as either an OR condition or an AND condition, depending on the type of filter option.

  3. Once all criteria are selected, click Refresh icon in the top-right corner. The Dashboard report updates with the selected criteria.
