Alternate methods of filtering information in N-able N-central

The N-central dashboard contains a lot of information and includes a range of filtering and sorting options to help you drill-down and find what you are looking for.

Filters can be created and applied to service templates, rules, scheduled tasks, and other functions. Use the filtering tools available in various locations to help find your information.
