Assign a  Variable to a  Group

To assign a   Variable to a  Group within a project:

• Once the Variable has loaded on the right hand section of this tab, select a new group from the drop down.
• You should see the  Save Variable button change to a  check mark to indicate the changes have been saved.

If a variable is assigned "No Group", then it will not appear within the Interrogate, Dashboard or Analysis tools. Therefor, to remove a variable from use within a project, change it's assigned group to "No Group". Numeric type variables (i.e. none categorical) cannot be assigned to a group, and therefor the drop down box for it's group will be empty.

Assign a  Variable as a  Filter

• Once the Variable has loaded on the right hand section of this tab, ensure the Filter checkbox is checked.
• Click the  Save Variable button. You should see the  Save Variable button change to a  check mark to indicate the changes have been saved.

Some variables cannot be assigned as a filter as they are Numeric fields. In these cases, the checkbox will be disabled.

Assign a  Variable as a  Subset

To assign a   Variable as a  Subset within a project:

• Browse to the  Edit page for the Project you wish to change, as per "Editing a Project" above.
• Browse to the  Variables tab.
