Note Beginning with 24R1 in April 2024 and for all subsequent releases, the new Vault Safety Help site is the official site for all Vault Safety Help content. This site reflects updates until the 23R3 release only. For the latest information, visit the new site.

About the Feature

Support to filter Cases by Approval Date in aggregate reports was added in Vault Safety 21R1. You can filter by Approval Date in DSUR, PBRER, and PSUR aggregate reports.

For vaults created in 20R3 or earlier, an administrator must perform configuration to add the Filter Cases By field to the Aggregate Report Page Layout. Vaults originally deployed in 21R1 display this field on page layouts by default.

The system will continue to use the Case Receipt Date / New Info Date by default if this feature is not configured.

Update Aggregate Report Page Layout

  1. In the Admin area, go to Configuration > Objects > Aggregate Report > Page Layout, and then select Aggregate Report Detail Page Layout.
  2. In the Details section, select Add and then add the Filter Cases By field from the dropdown list.
  3. Select Save at the top right of the page.

Result

Users can now specify how aggregate reports will filter Cases within the reporting period.
