Filters help narrow down your search results by applying filters based on document attributes. The filters that you see in the left navigation pane are defined by the administrator in the iManage Insight+ administration interface. For every tab that's configured for your search interface, the administrator can configure different filters. For example, if you have two tabs—Documents and Knowledge—the filters under each tab can be exclusive.
NOTE:
When results have 1,000 or more of a certain filter, iManage Insight+ rounds that up. This is indicated by a K after the number for thousands and M for millions. This nomenclature adapts for different languages for ease of use.
You can refine your search results using filters in three ways:
Filter value inclusion
You can select multiple filter values, across filters, at one time, to refine your search results.
The selected filter values are displayed on the top of the refined search results. Your search results are filtered to display only those results that conform to the selected filter values.
You can edit your filter selection dynamically to view a different set of search results.
Filter value exclusion
Alternatively, you can opt to exclude certain filter values from your refined search results. The option is particularly useful when you can arrive at your desired list of documents easily by excluding a few filter values, rather than by including many of them. For example, if you are looking for all file types except the presentation files (PPT or PPTX), it's easier to exclude just this one file type than to include all remaining file types.
Select 
Presentation files are excluded from the search results. And all such excluded values are displayed with a strikethrough.
Filter search
Additionally, for certain filters, which may have many possible values, there's an option to search for a certain value using the search field provided within the filter. As you type the filter value, the system gives auto-suggestions to make it easier for you to find the value you are looking for.
