Unless you change this preference, you will see 10 items per page. The maximum number of items per page is 25. In the following example, you can enter 10 and then press Enter to display 10 items on the page.

Filtering the List
You can reduce the number of visible records in the Reports list using the search function and Advanced search criteria. Filtered data displays only the records that meet criteria that you specify and hides records that you do not want displayed. Criteria are filter options you set to limit which records are included in the result view. You can use one or more filter options at once.
The Search field allows you to search for a specific report. Enter your search criteria in the Search field and press Enter or the Search button.
The Advanced Filter allows you to reduce the number of the reports in the list on the basis of all possible filter options. To use the advanced filter, click the Advanced Filter link next to the Search bar on the Reports page. The Advanced List Filter window displays.
