You’ll need to rename them so they have the same name. You could just save a beast mode to the dataset where you have it just return the other column

No, if you can change the names so they're the same in the backed then you won't need to create a new field / beast mode to do your filtering.

@GrantSmith - Thanks. I am new to Domo. I just renamed it to have a common name across both data sources. What formula should I put in the beast mode?

If you have dataset A with Field1 and Dataset B with Field2 then create a beast mode on the card using dataset B and call it Field1. Then have it return the value Field2
`Field2`

@GrantSmith - do I still need to create this beast mode after I have changed my backend data sources to have same column name in both?
