Project Planning & Scheduling Using Primavera Contractor Version 4.1: For the Construction Industry

This chapter covers the ability of Primavera Contractor to control which activities are displayed, both on the screen and in printouts, by using Filters.
Primavera Contractor has an ability to display activities that meet specific criteria. You may want to see only the incomplete Activities, or the work scheduled for the next couple of months, or the Activities that are in progress.
Primavera Contractor defaults to displaying all activities. It has a number of pre-defined filters available that you may use or edit. You may also create one or more of your own.
A filter may be applied to display or to highlight only those activities that meet a criteria.
There are two types of filters:
Default filters which are supplied with the system and may not be edited or deleted but may be copied and then edited or modified.
User-Defined filters which are defined by a user. Drop down or Auto filters as in Excel and Microsoft Project are not available.
