Duplicating task filters

Use the Task Filters application to create a new task filter based on an existing one.

About this task

After you duplicate the task filter, the application clears the Filter field of the duplicate, so you can assign it a different name.

Sometimes it is more efficient to create a new task filter record by copying another one whose attribute values are similar.

The steps for duplicating a task filter follow.

Procedure

  1. On the List tab in the Task Filters application, select the task filter record you want to duplicate. The application displays the selected record on the Task Filter tab.
  2. From the Select Action menu, select Duplicate Task Filter. The application duplicates the task filter record, but without a value in the Filter field.
  3. In the Filter field, type the name for the new task filter record.
  4. Optional: In the Description field, type a description. To enter additional information, click the Long Description icon.
  5. Optional: In the Task Filter Clauses section, modify the task filter by adding new attributes and values or by removing or modifying existing attributes and values.
  6. Click Save.
