Apply Filters to Scope Violations

By default, the Violations page displays violations for all rule books and rules owned by you (the signed in user). You can also view the violations assigned to you (the signed-in user) by clicking on the counts displayed on To Do of the scorecard.

Note: If the violation cap defined on the Configuration page is hit during an analysis, a notification that the violations cap is hit is not displayed on this page.

Filters can help you to scope violations so that you view only those violations that you require. For example, you can use filters to view violations for a specific analysis. Once you select your filters you can save them and reuse them at a later date.

Select filters as follows:

  1. Click the Expand icon to expand the Filters panel.
  2. Select any of the filters listed below.
