Use

Filter according to date attributes

Choose

Date.

Enter your filter criteria:

To only display a particular date type, select the date type in the Date type section.

To only display dates whose variance is larger than the tolerance you entered in Assigning Events to a Group, set an indicator for the relevant condition in the Variance section.

To only display a particular period, enter an interval for the relevant date type in the Date interval section.

To filter according to statuses that you have defined and set, you can set the statuses in the Status interval section. For example, you can only display events that you consider to be critical, via the status.

Accept the filter criteria by choosing.
To remove a filter, choose Date.
