Creating a filtered report

Creating a filtered report in CaseMap simply involves filtering data and modifying spreadsheet views to capture key case information. Once filters are applied and the spreadsheet contains the records and field view you want, you can preserve that data by printing a hard copy, printing to a PDF file to store in a Reports folder along with network directory cases, or export it to another application, if needed. You may also save the filtered report criteria to re-run later when the case is populated with more data.
