# Filter by blank Transporter ID or Vehicle Number

There are multiple situations when the E-way bill is in Pending / Part A / Failed / Generated status and you would like to filter for those E-way bills that have a blank transporter ID or blank vehicle number.

Instead of manually searching for the E-way bills where Transporter ID or vehicle number have to be updated, you can manually filter for such E-way bills and update the details in bulk.

Below are the steps on how to use the filter:

### Step 1: Land on E-way bills page

Login to your ClearTax account and click on 'E-way bills' on the left sided menu to land on the E-way bills page containing the list of E-way bills.

### Step 2: Go to Transporter ID or Vehicle number Search  / Filter

From the set of filters available on the left go to the 'Transporter ID' filter or 'Vehicle Number' search / filter option.
