Interactive Query provides the option to save queries that you might regularly create. You can then easily access your saved queries later.
To save a new query
To save a new query, first make sure that the CURRENTLY SAVED SEARCHES selection reads "New Query".
Next, click on the Save button. The CURRENTLY SAVED SEARCHES drop down list will change to a QUERY NAME textbox.
Enter a name for your query, and click the Save Confirm button to save your query.
Your query is saved, and the CURRENT SAVED SEARCHES drop down list again appears, with your new query in the list.
Tip: The CURRENT SAVED SEARCHES list is sorted in alphabetical order, and the first one in the list is automatically loaded when you select a QUERY TYPE. So if there is a query you run frequently, give it a name that will pull it to the top of the list.
Tip: Since queries are shared across an organization, you may find including your initials in your query names helps to keep track of the queries you create.
To Load an Existing Query
Once you have saved a query, it is available for use by you or other users in your organization with Staff or Admin access. To load the query again, simply select the desired query from the CURRENT SAVED SEARCHES list for the desired query type.
The CURRENT DEFINITION section will reflect the parameters of the query, and the query results will be displayed.
To Update an Existing Query
If you make changes to an existing query or if you wish to change the query's name, you can easily click on the Save button to update the query. Just make sure that the desired query to be updated is the one selected in CURRENT SAVED SEARCHES drop down list.
Tip: To copy an existing query, first load the query to be copied. Then select New Query from the CURRENT SAVED SEARCHES drop down list. Choosing New Query does not automatically clear the current query settings so the previously selected query definition remains in place. Now simply make any additional changes desired and follow the instructions for saving a new query.
