Adding date restrictions

Restrictions are criteria that files must meet to be included in reports, filter results, and advanced find results. You set restrictions when you add reports, add filters, or perform an advanced find.

Date restrictions limit results to files that include a specific date or date in a time period. This restriction is used to find files based on last modified date, last check in date, time/date, and other date/time-based information. For example, you can create a restriction to find all files modified in the last two weeks.

Note: Preconditions, which are similar to restrictions, are used in triggers and email notifications. The following information also applies to preconditions.

1. Select a restriction.

The Restriction dialog box opens.

2. Select is or is not to indicate if the files include the specified date or time period.

Note: If the restriction is for a date/time custom field, select is not set to include files with date/time custom fields that are not set to a value.

3. Select the time period to search.

4. Click OK to add the restriction.
