In some cases the search term secondary menus include True, False, Is Set, or Is Not Set operators. When these modifiers are used, the term is identified as a boolean search term. For example the Metadata: Has Audio search term includes these boolean options.

Some operators such as Is Set (=set) and Is Not Set (=!set) can be used with search terms that do not offer this option in a sub-menu. In the following example illustration, the user selected the Metadata: System ID search type and manually typed “=!set” into the field.

After pressing the tab key to advance to a new pill, the value is displayed as the more user friendly “Is Not Set” text value. Because the value is configured for “Is Not Set”, the search eliminates any asset that includes a System ID.

The secondary menus might also include numerical options such as Less Than, Greater Than, or others. When using these operators, you might be able to select a predefined value such as > 1 Hour or you can select a custom option such as > Greater Than and enter a custom numerical value. Unlike the Is Set / Is Not Set options, you cannot type the manual equivalent of these values.

The following illustration shows the Asset Management: Air Duration search term using same “greater than 1 hour” search when entered as a predefined value (first search term) and a custom value (second search term).
