5 Log Toolbar
5.1 Overview ¶
The log toolbar sits above the log list and contains the actions for filtering and exporting the processing log, plus the quick log search on the right. To clear the log completely, use Menu → More → Clear log database… (see chapter 2.2.7).
5.2 Filter log entries… ¶
Opens the log filter dialog, where you define criteria-based filters (field/operator/value per row, combined with AND) - for example “Seller contains Sample Ltd” and “Amount greater than 149.99”. The filter applies to all tabs of the log list and persists across restarts. The status bar shows how many entries the active filter hides (Log filter: N, see chapter 7.2.2).
5.3 Create Excel report… ¶
Opens the Create report dialog, where you choose period and options, and then generates an Excel report (XLSX) of the processing runs (see chapter 80.3). The button is only enabled when log entries exist.
5.4 Export log as CSV… ¶
Exports the currently visible log (all tabs combined, including any active filter and search) as a semicolon-separated CSV file - ready to open in Excel.
5.5 Log search ¶
The search box on the right searches the log live. It covers all displayed fields (profile, processing time, file, source folder, invoice number, seller, amount, attachments, task status) as well as all other stored invoice data (including customer number, routing ID, order/contract number, project, due date, path). The search is case-insensitive.
While you are searching, the match summary “x of y” (matches/searched entries) appears to the left of the search box, and the tab headers switch to “matches / total” per tab so you can see at a glance which tab contains the matches. Use the ✕ symbol inside the search box to clear the search.
5.5.1 Search expressions ¶
Multiple terms are combined with AND (all must occur). In addition, the search understands the following expressions (operators work in English or German - “and”/“und”, “or”/“oder”, “not”/“nicht”):
| Expression |
Meaning |
| invoice or credit |
OR combination |
| invoice -draft |
Exclusion: a minus before a term excludes entries containing it |
| “Strong Electronics” |
Phrase: the quoted text must occur as a whole |
| R32*_2026?.pdf |
Wildcards: * matches any number of characters, ? exactly one |
| (error or warning) and pdf |
Parentheses group sub-expressions |
5.5.2 Restricting the search to a field ¶
A prefix in front of a term searches a specific field, for example:
| Example |
Searched field |
| profile:Inbox |
Profile name |
| file:*.xml |
File name |
| folder:Inbox (also: path:) |
Source folder/path |
| invoiceno:3259 (also: number:) |
Invoice number |
| seller:Strong (also: issuer:, supplier:) |
Seller |
| amount:89.95 |
Amount due |
| date:2026-07 |
Processing time |
| invoicedate:2026-02 |
Invoice date |
| status:error (also: task:, message:) |
Task status lines |
| attachment:deliverynote |
Attachments of the PDF/XML file |
The German prefixes (profil:, datei:, ordner:, rechnungsnr:, verkaeufer:, betrag:, datum:, rechnungsdatum:, status:, aufgabe:, meldung:, anhang:) work as well. Prefixes can be combined with all expressions, e.g. seller:"Strong Electronics" and status:error.
5.5.3 Toggles next to the search box ¶
| Toggle |
Function |
| Funnel icon |
Respect log filter as pre-filter (enabled by default): the search only covers the entries pre-filtered by the log filter (see section 5.2). When disabled, the search bypasses the log filter and covers the entire log. Without an active log filter the toggle has no effect. Its state persists across restarts. |
| .* |
Search as regular expression (regex): the search text is evaluated as a regular expression (e.g. ^TEST = starts with “TEST”, 2026-0[16] = January or June 2026). An invalid expression outlines the search box in red and shows a “!” indicator; the list remains unfiltered. |
| ? |
Shows the search help with the most important expressions and field prefixes. |
