The page dynamically refreshes as the portal receives input. Use this option to search within a task name or asset ID number. If you are looking for tasks assigned to a particular user or with a specific status, use the Filter option instead.  ![Tasks Search option magnified on System Management Tasks page](https://support.cognosos.com/hs-fs/hubfs/FVL%20AA%20Graphics/Tasks%20Search.png?width=688&height=129&name=Tasks%20Search.png) ***Filtering Tasks*** Open the Tasks page and select the Filter dropdown list. ![Tasks Filter option magnified on System Management Tasks page](https://support.cognosos.com/hs-fs/hubfs/FVL%20AA%20Graphics/Tasks%20Filter%20option.png?width=688&height=63&name=Tasks%20Filter%20option.png) Make selections for the filter criteria.

To remove a single item from the displayed filter (if more than one selected), use the *X* next to the item next to Selected filters about the table. To remove all filters and return to all tasks, click **Clear Filters**.
