Clear Filters vs Reset Filters

Clear Filters

• Removes all user-configured filters.
• Displays everything you have access to.
• Equivalent to “no filters applied.”

Reset Filters

• Resets filters to KPI Fire’s default preconfigured values.
• Default reset values include:
  • User: My User
  • Department: My Department
  • Goals: Current Year (e.g., 2025)
  • Categories: none

Summary:

• Clear Filters = empty state
• Reset Filters = KPI Fire defaults applied

Default Reset Values for Project Benefits

When resetting filters on the Project Benefits page, defaults are:

• Project Status = Active, Control, Complete, On Hold
• Benefit Date = Current Fiscal Year
• Workflows = None selected
• Project Benefits = First parent one (single dept)
• Project Benefit Depts = None selected
• Project Tags = None selected

Special Notes about Filters for API users

If a user has created API keys for accessing data via apis, the Global Filters WILL be applied to any data requests BEFORE the data is returned by the api.

Benefits/Advantages:  Access to account data for api users can be controlled by setting global filters.

Potential Issues: If you are using a user login account for regular user access and for api access, you could experience random/variation in your api responses due to the user changing global filters during regular usage.

Recommendation: Use dedicated user accounts for permanent API Access Needs.
