Filters
Rules for naming filters make operation easier, so the recommended rules used in templates are shown below. Filters continue to grow throughout the life of the model, and can number in the hundreds. Also, since there is no way to tell if a filter is assigned to a view on the settings dialog, it is difficult to remove it later. Therefore, it is desirable to eliminate duplication of filters by keeping the filter list highly visible. Below is an example of a filter naming convention.Filter name | Filter Rules |
