Ploti's powerful filtering system helps you find exactly the projects you need, whether you're managing a handful or hundreds of projects.

## Adding Filters

Click the **Filter** button to open the filter menu. You can add multiple filters that work together to narrow down your project list.

## What You Can Filter By

* **Status & Priority** — Find projects at specific stages or priority levels
* **Risk Level** — Filter by risk assessment
* **Project Type** — Residential, Commercial, Industrial, etc.
* **Budget & Funding** — Filter by budget range or funding source
* **People** — Project lead, team members, or teams
* **Dates** — Start date or target completion
* **Search** — Find projects by title

## Combining Filters

When you add multiple filters:

* Filters are combined with **AND** logic
* All conditions must be met for a project to appear
* Within a single filter, multiple values use **OR** logic

**Example:** Filtering for `Status is Active` AND `Priority is any of High, Medium` shows all active projects that are either high or medium priority.

## Grouping Projects

Beyond filtering, you can group your project list by:

* **Status** - See projects organized by their current status
* **Priority** - Group by priority level
* **Lead** - Group by assigned project lead
* **No Grouping** - Flat list view

## Sorting

Sort your filtered results by:

* Any filterable field
* Ascending or descending order
* Default: Most recently updated first

## Saving Views

Your filter, grouping, and sort preferences are saved per view, so you can quickly return to your preferred project organization.
