5.3.5 Setting display conditions for fields displayed in a report (filter condition)

Setting the display conditions for fields displayed in a report allows you to filter the data to be displayed in the report so that the displayed data best matches your purpose. You can also set multiple filter conditions.

To set the display conditions for fields to be displayed in a report:

1. In Field of the New Report > Filter window, select the fields to be filtered.
2. Set the display conditions for the fields.
   For example, for a realtime report of the top ten processes whose CPU usage ratio is high and whose agent is PFM - Agent for Platform (Windows), if you specify the condition that the value of PID (ID_PROCESS) field is not 0 for Process Detail (PD) records, set as follows:
   Field: PID
   Condition: <>
   Value: 0
   
3. Click the Add button.
   The condition set in step 2 is added to Conditional expression.
   Conditional expression: PID <> "0"
   If no conditional expression is set in Conditional expression, the report is registered as a report without any conditional expression.
   The following figure shows an example of defining a realtime report of the top ten processes whose CPU usage ratio is high and whose agent is PFM - Agent for Platform (Windows), with the following filter condition specified for the Process Detail (PD) record:
   The value of the PID (ID_PROCESS) field is not 0

4. Click the Next > button.
   
   • When the report type is Realtime (Single Agent):
     The New Report > Indication settings (Realtime) window appears. Go to 5.3.6 (1) Setting the display information for a realtime report.
     
   • When the report type is Historical (Single Agent) or Historical (Multiple Agents):
     The New Report > Indication settings (Historical) window appears. Go to 5.3.6 (2) Setting the display information for a historical report.
     

Reference note: If you want to set filter conditions while displaying a report

If you select Specify when displayed, you can set filter conditions while displaying a report. Do not select Specify when displayed if you want to display a report using conditions defined beforehand in the New Report > Filter window.
