Documents report filtered on location folder?

Avatar

Level 9

I would like to create a document report (or project report) that allows to filter if any documents exist in a specific custom folder.

Is this possible?

Hi Christina,

Using an EXISTS filter, you could produce a Document report that only returns documents in a folder with a specific folder name. The following text mode would enable you to do this.

EXISTS:a:$$EXISTSMOD=EXISTS

EXISTS:a:$$OBJCODE=DOCFLD

EXISTS:a:documentID=FIELD:ID

EXISTS:a:folder:name=The Name Of Your Doc Folder Here

EXISTS:a:folder:name_Mod=eq

If it is a very specific folder you are looking at, I would also add an additional filter rule to only look at documents on a specific project or task . This will ensure that if there are other document folders in your instance that are named the same, those documents appear in your report.

Best Regards,

Rich.

Hi Richard,

 

Is it similarly possible to apply a grouping to a report by project document folder?

 

thanks
