# Filter & track changes

Tracking changes in the report using an interactive, filterable, and comment-enabled audit log that captures date, time, user details, task status, and more is essential for ​data governance. This gives information such as who commented on a specific data point and when.

### 1. Filter/view all tasks

To view all the tasks, click the **Comments** dropdown and then select **View All Comments**.

A **filter** icon is available, as highlighted in the image below. You can filter comments or assigned tasks using options such as comment **type**, **date range**, **assigned to**, **assigned by**, and **sort**.

### 2. Filter by comments' type

The **Type** option lets you filter comments by their type. You have the following options:

* **My thread**: Shows only the threads created by you, not other users.
* **Resolved**: Displays all resolved comments.
* **Unresolved**: Displays all open comments.
* **Starred**: Displays all starred comments.
* **All**: No filters applied. Displays all comments.

In the image below, comments are filtered by the **Starred** type. A green indicator on the **filter** icon, as highlighted, shows that filters are currently applied.

### 3. Filter by time period

The **Date Range** option allows you to filter comments created within a specific time period. You can select the **Start date** and **End date** using the calendar that appears when you click the respective date fields.

The **Sort** option allows you to change the order of comments. The comments can be sorted either from **Newest to Oldest** or **Oldest to Newest**, with the newest comments appearing at the top or bottom of the list, respectively.

{% hint style="info" %}

* You can apply multiple filters at the same time to quickly narrow down results.
* For example, you can view the **resolved tasks** that are **assigned to a specific person,** **created on a specific week/date** by using all these filters together.
  {% endhint %}

### 8. Sort replies

You can also find a **Sort by** option when you expand the **three-dots** icon, as highlighted in the image below. This option allows you to sort comment replies **within a thread** either from **Newest to Oldest** or **Oldest to Newest**, depending on whether you want the most recent reply to appear first or last.

The image below shows the comment replies sorted in the **Newest to Oldest** order.

### 9. Assigned Tasks for Read-Only Users

Users who only consume the report in **Reading view** and do not have edit access can still view their assigned tasks in the comments panel.
