If no expressions have been defined the Attribute Query Expression window is immediately displayed for defining new query expressions. If attribute queries have been previously defined they are shown in the expression table in the Attribute Filter tab and you must click the Add button to create a new attribute query expression. |
Attribute filtering expressions written for a selected item type will only return items of that type and sub types even if the same attribute name applies to other item types in the parts list Item types for which no attribute filtering expressions have been written will always be displayed in the parts list. |
You can use the Service Parts preference Excluded Part and Dynamic Document Subtypes to restrict the list of item types provided in the Type field. For more information, see Setting Service Preferences |
You can make more than one choice from the Criteria menu prior to completing the attribute query expression. All choices appear as individual comparisons in separate rows. Expressions can be deleted by clicking on the Remove Expression icon. For more information about using multiple comparisons in a single attribute query expression, see Using Multiple Attribute Filter Expressions. |
