Adding number restrictions

Restrictions are criteria that files must meet to be included in reports, filter results, and advanced find results. You set restrictions when you add reports, add filters, or perform an advanced find.

Number restrictions limit results to files that do or do not include a specific number or number in a range. This restriction is used to locate files based on version, size, integer custom field values, float custom field values, and other number-based data. For example, you can create a restriction to find all version 2 files.

Preconditions, which are similar to restrictions, are used in triggers and email notifications. The following information also applies to preconditions.
