Documentation

Definition

Shows the filter value that you pass on to PCo.

Use

You can specify a filter value in the Business Suite system to restrict the selection of tags. This filter value is sent to PCo, together with a filter type (for example, NATIVE, REGEX.) PCo analyzes the filter criteria and returns tags that match the filter criteria.

Depending on the filter type used, specific separators can be used in the filter value, for example, for searching for tags in which the text string 'Temp' is part of the name:

  • When using filter type REGEX, the filter value is +Temp. In this case, "+" is the separator.
    • REGEX filter criteria must use regular expressions supported by the .NET Framework. For further information, see the Microsoft .NET documentation.
  • When using the NATIVE filter type, the filter value is *Temp*. In this case# "*" is the separator.
    • The native filter supports the expressions of the source system (e.g. OSI Soft PI). For more information on allowed expressions, see the documentation for the source system.
