Filters
Use filters to customize the report to display or hide certain matches and sources, depending on their relevance to your review. For example, checking the Exclude bibliography filter will hide all matches found in the bibliography or list of references typically found at the end of a submission.
Applying filters

To view filtering options, select the Filters button located in the top right of the right-side panel, to the right of the overall similarity.

Use the checkboxes to change the filter setting. All match criteria and databases are included by default, unless otherwise specified in assignment settings.
- Select Back to Similarity Report to view the overall similarity panel with the applied filters.
Exclusions
Exclude specific matches or sources to remove them from the score.
Excluding a match

Excluding a source
- Navigate to the Sources list.
- Select a highlight in the document to bring that source into focus in the right-side panel; or choose a source card from the list in the right-side panel.
- Choose the Exclude icon in the source card to exclude all matches to that particular source from the report.
