# Filter to Choose Inclusion or Exclusion Criteria for RBM

The Filter to Choose Inclusion or Exclusion Criteria for RBM field is an optional parameter that enables you to filter rows from the IE data set to choose the appropriate records to subset to failed inclusion or exclusion criteria of interest. Risk indicators are calculated using this subset of inclusion or exclusion criteria only.

Note: It is necessary to use quotation marks when filtering data using values of a character variable (IECAT = "SIGNIFICANT", for example), but no quotation marks are required for filtering by values of a numeric variable.

You can enter one or more statements (joined by AND or OR) in this field.

The syntax of this filter expression follows the syntax of SAS WHERE statements. For more information about this syntax, see The SAS WHERE Expression.
