Oct 2016 - Grid Views and Search Module

Webinar in which users will learn the full scope of the search functionality enabling them to find information and provide a detailed look into legal department activities.

Topics covered in the webinar include:

  • Filtering and sorting within grid views to locate specific matters, players or a subset.
  • Searching to create ad-hoc reports to give a detailed look into legal department activity
  • Exporting search results to Excel to allow you to easily sort, filter and aggregate search results.

TIPS AND TRICKS

Use the wildcard (%) and the “sounds like” feature to find information when you’re uncertain how something is spelled.

Example: If a name may be spelled Khone or Kone, search K%one

 

Use pivot tables to aggregate information to create easy to understand reports.

Example: Pivot tables can be used to find what portion of your legal spend is coming from fees compared to expenses for each firm.
