# About shared filters

Shared filters are a type of reusable filters that are available for every user of your
instance.
You use the [Filters (CS209010)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customisation/customisation-windows/filters-cs209010/index.md) window to
create, modify, and delete the shared filters.

In this topic, you can find information on managing shared filters.

## Create shared filters

You can use one of the following ways to add a shared filter:

+ By using the [Filters (CS209010)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customisation/customisation-windows/filters-cs209010/index.md) window: By default, every filter you create in the [Filters (CS209010)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customisation/customisation-windows/filters-cs209010/index.md) window is shared. For detailed procedure, see: [Add a system filter](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customisation/manage-shared-filters/add-a-system-filter/index.md).
+ By creating a filter in a window and marking the filter as shared.

For more information about creating filters, see: [About creating temporary or reusable filters](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/getting-started/personalise-the-presentation-of-data/about-creating-temporary-or-reusable-filters/index.md).

## Modify shared filters

You can modify the conditions and change the category of a shared filter only by using the
[Filters (CS209010)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customisation/customisation-windows/filters-cs209010/index.md) window.
For detailed procedure, see: [Modify a system filter](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customisation/manage-shared-filters/modify-a-system-filter/index.md).

If you make a filter not shared, the filter will become available for editing only in the window for which the filter has been created.

## Delete shared filters

You can delete an obsolete shared filter by using the [Filters (CS209010)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customisation/customisation-windows/filters-cs209010/index.md) window.
