Filtering Search Results
If you enter a search term and click 
at the top of any server page, the server doesn’t use filters. The search uses these default settings:
| • | Include subfolders |
| • | Start at the top-most folder visible to the user |
| • | Search for reports, report outputs, OLAP views, or other resources |
| • | Sort alphabetically by name |
If you click View > Search Results and click 
on the search results page, the server uses the filters you set in the Filters panel.
In “Search Field and Search Results”, you can see the results of a search for the term “account” using the filters All available and All types.

The search term you enter in the search field isn’t cleared automatically. To clear the search term, click the |
icon in the search field. You refine a search using filters. For example, filters can help you find your most recently viewed reports. You can set each filter independently. You can set the following types of filters:
| • | User |
| • | Resource |
| • | Access time |
| • | Scheduled report |
The user filter has the following settings:
