Exclude groups from report

[fchelp 3]

Hi there

I'm trying to generate a report of all failed server tasks, except if the clients are in specific static groups,

steps that i did

1. I set up a report template with these settings
   
2. And i'm trying to filter the results to show me all, but a few static groups
   

But for some reason it's impossible to set a filter to exclude a group, much less multiple groups.

1. When i add the condition "Static group . Static group" and set the value to ≠ (Not equal) to WhateverGroup it generates a report with only that group, instead of all but that group.
2. Let's say this bug is fixed, we still can't exclude multiple groups, as,
   • When choosing ≠ (Not equal) we can't select more then one group
   • There is no "Not in" option to choose from in the drop down menu for condition, only a "In" option.
     
   • Even if i decide to use a workaround and set the Value to "In" and select all groups except the ones i want to exclude, it won't work as then the report fails
     

 

Thanks in advance.

Rewritten full post to explain myself clearly

The first option is not currently possible. I will have to check with developers, whether "not in" will be doable in the upcoming release. 

There is possible to select "in" ,and choose multiple items.

I rewrote the first post to clarify clearly what the issue is.

I hope now it's easier to fully understand. (and duplicate)

Thanks

Anyone?

As of now, we can only admit, that the behavior your have described is correct. I will report a bug, that will hopefully be fixed in the future versions. Specifically adding the "not in" filter, and checking, why the "not equal" does not work as expected. I am going to replicate this by myself, to check / and maybe suggest a workaround. Thank you for your patience.
