Add or modify calculated values search criteria

When you select calculated values criteria for a search, Data Mining defaults to search for all values greater than zero. Edit calculated values search criteria when you want to search for clients whose data contains other ranges of amounts, numbers, or dates.
  1. In the
    Add / Modify Search Criteria
     window, select
    Calculated values
    .
  2. In
    Product
    , select
    federal
     or a state for the calculated values search criterion that you want to define.
  3. Add a criterion or modify the definition of an existing criterion:
    • To add a new criterion based on an existing criterion: Select a criterion, then select
      Another

    • To modify the current definition of an existing, user-created criterion: Select the criterion, then select
      Edit
      .
    note
    • You can't modify the predefined search criteria included with Data Mining.
    • When you add or modify a search criterion in the Search Criteria list, the new definition applies to all searches that use that criterion, including existing searches.
    • If you don't want to affect existing searches, don’t modify the search criterion. Instead, add and edit a new search criterion.
  4. From the
    Operator
     dropdown list, select the mathematical operator for the search criterion.
  5. Enter the

    note
    If you're searching for specific calculated amounts, numbers, or dates, define the relevant calculated values search criteria.
  6. Select
    Enter
     to save your changes.
  7. Do 1 of the following:
    • To add or modify other calculated values search criteria, repeat steps 3 to 6.
