    • Relationships: The Object's Relationship Name indicates that two or more objects are connected together through object types on an object type group added to a relationship on another object type.
    • References: The Object's Reference Name indicates an object is connected to another object through a relationship. Unnamed references will be hidden from the tables to avoid confusion; however, if a reference name is removed from a table after being added as a table column. In that case, the relationship name will be displayed for the reference in the Edit Table configuration, and Unresolved Reference will be used as the table column header. For more information, please refer to the References on Object Types article.
    • Workflow State: The Object's current Workflow State is the various stages of the data collection process (e.g., Create, Triage, Review, Investigate, Close).

Parameters Tab

29. Users can apply parameters that use workflow states, formula ranges, select list options, or roles to filter what data is displayed on the table. Parameters can be applied to a table using relationships saved to the table’s data definition but not references.

29. Under the Define Parameters section, enter parameters in the following field types to filter the data displayed in the Table:
    • By Workflow State:  Filter the table data by the various Workflow State stages (e.g., Create, Triage, Review, Investigate, Close).
    • By Select List Values: Filter the table data by Select List values. A Select List is a field type that allows users to select one or more options (e.g., dropdown menu).
    • By Formula Range: Filter the table data by formula range (e.g., Low, Medium, High). A Formula uses numeric and variable values (e.g., select lists, numeric or date fields, or workflow states) to generate Incident Severity, Estimated Damage, or Incident Likelihood. Formulas are added to an Object Type through a Relationship or Reference.
    • By Current Users: Filter the table data by user or user group. When one or more user groups are selected, only users within those roles can view the data in the table. This feature is useful to create customized reports for specific users. The Object Types in the Table's data series determines the available roles.
    • By Date and Time: Filter the table data by Date and Time range. All date-related options filter data in UTC (Universal Time Coordinated). Resolver recommends a date parameter to refine large data sets for improved report performance. Options include: 
      • Today: Show data from today's date only. 
      • Last [X] Days: Show data within the last 30, 60, 90, or 180 days relative to today.
      • Custom: Shows data within the dates selected in the From and To fields. The table will include objects up to the end of that date.
    • By Created On/Modified On: Filter the table data by Created On/Modified On Date. All date-related options filter data in UTC. Resolver recommends a date parameter to refine large data sets for improved report performance. Options include: 
      • Today: Show data from today's date only. 
      • Last [X] Days: Show data within the last 30, 60, 90, or 180 days relative to today.
      • Custom: Shows data within the dates selected in the From and To fields. The table will include objects up to the end of that date.
