The methods documented in this chapter operate on objects of the Filter class. Data filtering is a common task in collaboration processing; these methods filter the data contained in specified attributes of a business object. The results can then be used to determine whether the collaboration needs to synchronize a business object with specific data.
Table 69 lists the methods that this chapter describes.
