Reserved Words

Reserved words are used to add data to a filter based on when, and by whom, the filter is run.

Example: A user wants a filter of all the work that was completed in the last week. He creates a filter that says:

SELECT * FROM WKORDER WHERE WKORDER.WO_END_DT >= '6/18/2012' AND WKORDER.WO_END_DT <= '6/22/2012'

However, this query statement would be out of date the next week, requiring the user to adjust the dates.

So, the user rewrites the statement using the %PREVIOUSWEEK% reserved word:

SELECT * FROM WKORDER WHERE WKORDER.WO_END_DT = %PREVIOUSWEEK%

The new filter displays all work orders with an end date that falls within the seven days previous to it being run.
