CFM Display Filter - Assign Filter

Here the user groups are assigned to the filters defined in Customizing. The type of use of the assignment is defined. Several filters can be assigned to a user group, which are then also all applied to the corresponding users.

The filters assigned in this setting are only used for the display. Whether and which filters are used in a ProNovia SAP PLM ConfigurationManager Workbench selection dialog (starting an editing scenario) is determined by the assignment of the editing scenarios to the Configuration Types.
