Hi Team,

 

I am having some issues with the custom filter. I am basically trying to pass any field that contains a Null or Check or No Capex to the false Anchor. Am i doing something wrong with this formula:

 

[Cost Center - Cost center ID] != "Check" and [Cost Center - Cost center ID] = "Null" and [Cost Center - Cost center ID] != "NO CAPEX"

 

Cost Center - Cost center ID
NULL

Hi @ManuelRodrigues a IN function is better when you have a list of things within one column or in your case a NOT IN. Also it better to actually use multiple filters then try to combine a complex argument in a filter as they are more efficient and easier to troubleshoot.

Hi @ManuelRodrigues ,

 

You are missing an exclamation mark in your second statement, 

 

[Cost Center - Cost center ID] != "Check" and [Cost Center - Cost center ID] != "Null" and [Cost Center - Cost center ID] != "NO CAPEX"
