Enabling / Disabling the Site Filter Override in Damstra BI

Administrator users have the ability to disable the site filter in Damstra BI. This means that when a report is run it will not check to see which sites the user has selected in Damstra Safety and it will show all data across all sites. This is useful when broadcasting reports or setting up reports where you always want to view company-wide data or manually filter the sites yourself.

The report will refresh and you will be viewing data from all sites throughout Damstra Safety.
