**Filtering & Sorting Find/Search Contracts List**

*06. End Users: Searching & Reporting › Find/Search Contracts › Filtering & Sorting Find/Search Contracts List*

**Note:** Each procedure in this guide begins at the Contract Insight homepage, so any section can be followed on its own. Custom fields are configurable, so the exact field list on a contract category record may vary between environments.

# 1. Overview

The **Find/Search Contracts** screen can be filtered by entering the filter criteria into the appropriate column's text box and then clicking the **filter** icon to determine how the displayed records are to be filtered based on the entered criteria.![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3626857-1fb5-4e27-b278-2d3fc5508be4/Images/Documentation/image-1789568129382.png)
