Filter certain rows

Kallis

Hi

I have a requirement based on which I need to remove certain rows from the final output. From the below table, I need to leave out all those cost elements that starts with 5 and pick the ones that starts with 6.

 

I do not know whether this can be achieved using the Filter Tool. Kindly help

A StartsWith function in a filter tool should work well for your use case

@alexnajm I thought about such a parameter but it is not there

Sorry @alexnajm 

You meant a function. I just saw that
