The “INV” option helps users analyze what’s not selected in their filters — providing quick contrast and alternative views without rebuilding queries or filters.
How the “INV” Option Works
The INV (Inverse) feature flips your current filter selection to show the unselected dataset.
Let’s take a look at an example using the “Prints and copies timeline” report:
If you select 2 out of 5 printers on the timeline view, clicking “INV” switches the view to show data from the 3 unselected printers.
Here we have two printers selected.
Selecting “INV” toggles the unselected three printers
This makes it easy to toggle perspectives — whether you want to focus on specific printers, departments, user groups, or see what’s excluded.
Key Takeaway
Use “INV” to quickly switch between filtered and unfiltered reporting dimensions — a faster way to analyze data without reselecting filters.
