Gadget filters
Filter type
Select the type of filter you want to configure for gadgets (lists and charts) on the homepage: Date-time or Selector. The following macros are supported to set default values:
• &USERID - only for selectors of business object type User.
• &PERSON - only for selectors of business object type Personnel.
• &PERSON.ADDRESS - only for selectors of business object type Address.
• &PERSON.COSTCENTER - only for selectors of business object type Cost center.
• &PERSON.DEPARTMENT - only for selectors of business object type Department.
• &PERSON.PROPERTY - only for selectors of business object type Property.
• &PERSON.SPACE - only for selectors of business object type Space.
In Date-time filter types, all date-time macros (including rounding) are supported to set default values, for example: &DATE, &DATETIME, &STARTOFDAY. If you use the BETWEEN operator, a second field with a default value macro should be available.

End users cannot use macros in their configured Date-time filters.
Selector
In Selector filter types, you can filter on aspects of a business object. If you choose Selector, enter the selector by which gadgets must be filtered. The selector's code must match the selector code of the field(s) in the gadgets of your homepage.
