The Asset Group drop-down list appears in the upper right corner of the page. Its function is to control which Asset Group's records you can view at any given time.
The larger the organization, the more likely it is that multiple application users will attempt to display data for Asset Groups at the same time. By permitting application users to display data for relatively small Asset Groups rather than all at once, web server performance is improved and users are better able to find the information most relevant to them.
Asset Group Filter works in conjunction with page-specific filters and report parameters. If you select a particular group from the Asset Group drop-down list and then select the (ALL) option from the Asset Group drop-down list in a report, information will be returned for all asset groups in the selected group rather than all asset groups in the organization.
When you change your current Asset Group selection, the new selection is applied immediately. Your selection will be remembered the next time you sign in to application, and will not change unless you change it.
The Asset Group Filter is applied to any page that has an Asset Group drop-down list, controlling which asset groups appear in the drop-down list and in the corresponding results list or table.
