Create Custom Report - Field Filters Tab
Custom Reports Deprecation: Cornerstone will be deprecating the legacy reporting solution "Custom Reports" in August 2022. See Deprecation of Custom Reports to Begin in August 2022.
The Field Filters tab enables you to filter the report fields in order to narrow down the report results or get more specific results, such as selecting a date range for your data. Once the filters are defined, you can refresh the report preview panel to update the report results.
The data that is available to you when you filter a report is dependent upon the same constraints that are defined for you for the custom report. For example, if you filter by an organizational unit (OU), and your permission is constrained to users within a certain Division OU, then you will not be able to see report data for users in any other Division OUs.
