Filter


About:

The Filter block provides the ability to apply a filter to a data set. To do this, any expression can be used, looking at multiple columns, parsing text, doing mathematical manipulation and logical operations, as long as the result of the calculation is TRUE the record will be passed, otherwise it will be rejected. In the event of data type issues, records are collected on the Error stub.
