How to use Beast Mode to Filter Out Specific Words or Phrases
Hi,
I'd like to create a re-useable calc that will filter out certain words or phrases that are found in a field.
example:
Closed Description field might have the words or phrases below which I do not want my cards to display those records.
SPAM, N/A, Dup, Duplicate
Thanks, Lisa

@user03163 You can create a beast mode like the one below that you can use a as a filter. Using the LIKE operator with the % wildcard will allow you to exclude any records that contain the specified text. In this case searching for "Dup" will also return "Duplicate".
case when `Closed Description` like '%SPAM%' then 'Exclude' when `Closed Description` like '%N/A%' then 'Exclude' when `Closed Description` like '%Dup%' then 'Exclude' else 'Include' end
