Using stationName in the filter

Hello! Does anyone know why using the stationName DICOM variable in the filter returns an error asking to refresh the woklist only to return the same error? The filter validates, but does not work. Best,

Hi,
There is an issue with certain series-level query attributes when used from the worklist. This will be fixed in the next release. As a workaround, you can use the attribute if you limit your query to less than one page of results. So you may want to limit the time range and/or increase the worklist page size.
Additionally, I wanted to point out that station name is a series-level attribute and thus query performance will be slower than with using study level attributes. You might consider using a combination of modalitiesInStudy and institutionName/facilityName instead if that suits your needs. In general we recommend not using facility specific DICOM tags unless completely unavoidable because sometimes they change on a whim and then your filters no longer work.
Regards,
Justin

Hi Justin,
Thank you for the information. I essentially ended up using exactly that, institutionName. This was an unusual request since they wanted one out of 3 US Techs restricted to view his own studies. Luckily the institution name on his US Machine is different than everyone else's!
Best,
