CU Marketplace Tip: How do I use Filters in my Searches to view documents?

November 05, 2025

What is it?

The CU Marketplace provides powerful search functionality with results that can be filtered and refined. After you view a Search List, you can use the Quick Filters section on the left or the filters above the list to narrow the list to those documents that contain specific attributes.

For more in-depth details about searches and reports, refer to the Reporting in the CU Marketplace Training Guide.
