What is Filter Logic?

If you have more than one filter in a report, adding filter logic will let you specify conditions for your filters  to group, partition, and even exclude filter elements from a report with everyday language like AND, OR and NOT. When you add filters to a report, by default, all filters are related as AND logic.

All your report filters will be numbered. Your first filter is Filter 1 and your second filter is Filter 2. You apply filter logic based on these numbers. 

The three filter logic operators are:
  1. AND: Finds records that match both values
  2. OR: Finds records that match either value 
  3. NOT: Finds records that exclude values
For example:  You would like a report on all MYCE Quote type = Groups with a Closed status not equal to Lost, Cancelled, Refused and with either a revenue greater or equal to 10.000 EUR or a number of Pax greater or equal to 100. 
Filter 1 = Type equals Groups
Filter 2 = Closed status not equal to Lost, Cancelled, Refused
Filter 3= Total Amount excluding Tax greater or equal 10.000€
Filter 4= Pax greater or equal 50
Your filter logic will be 1 AND 2 AND (3 OR 4)

How to add Filter Logic to Reports 

1. From your report, click on 'Filters' 
2. Click the down arrow
3. Select 'Add Filter Logic'



4. By default all filters will be related as AND logic (1). You can edit the logic depending on your requirements (2). 



5. Click on 'Apply' when done.
