Filtering the Scope allows you to refine your view on the main grid to display only the Elements that are relevant to you. The Filter feature also allows you to compare budget amounts as described in this section.
A number of pre-defined filters exist for both Financial and Employee Scopes. These filters assist in validating and analyzing a budget. ESP™ also provides powerful ad-hoc filtering that supports simple logical equations or more complex data set comparisons.
