Filter criteria defined by reference

 

Filter criteria can be defined to reference the current user’s account information. This permits copying worklist filters between user accounts without having to customize each one for user-specific criteria. For example, filter the database for all studies whose report was transcribed by the person running the filter, or find all studies assigned to the user based on their user account ID.

 

To define filter criteria by reference, use the following syntax in the filter definition:

 

$$<COLID>$$, where <COLID> is the identifier of the database field.

 

The COLID must be one of the fields available in the User Account database table. These values are listed in the COLID column on the Customize Labels page when the Table selection is User Accounts.
