To sort the information available on the job events list, click the header of any column and SQL Enterprise Job Manager orders the information according to the selected column. For example, click Duration to sort jobs by the duration time.

- Status - filter according to your jobs status: Failed, Canceled, Succeeded, Retry, or Unknown.
- Instance - type those instances whose jobs you want to see. Click the respective icons [ ], [^], for example type %dev% and all instances that contain the word "dev" will be included for filtering. to add or remove an instance. To easily identify your instance names, you can use wildcard characters such as: %, _,
- Job name - type the names of the jobs for which you want to view their historical information. Click the respective icons [ ], [^], for example type %backup% and all jobs that contain the word "backup" will be included for filtering. to add or remove jobs. To easily identify your job names, you can use wildcard characters such as: %, _,
If your Job name has [ ] characters, replace them by the underscore "_" character so that SQL Enterprise Job Manager does not take them as wildcards and the alert rule is triggered correctly.
You can unselect the option Apply filter as it changes to make all your filter selections first and have your information changed when you finish.
