Description

When hovering over filtering options in the contextual menu like charge to callers, it would be helpful to show a modal with a tree graphic as shown here. The help files could be Markdown pages.

It may also make sense to add a question mark button next to the filter input that brings up a reference which explains all filtering options.

Investigate the existing filtering UI to find where the contextual menu is rendered, then implement a modal or tooltip that shows a tree graphic when hovering over filtering options, as described in the referenced issue. Additionally, consider adding a question mark button next to the filter input for a full reference.
