    Have an infoset that has data populated for one notification. Would like another notification on the same data, but with a condition (when FIELD=XYZ).

    But that field is not a measure so it does not show in the available columns when you open the condition tab in the new notification.

    Instead of having to build a new infoset that is a subset of another infoset - how can we do this?

      If the column must be a condition for one notification and not for the other just add the field twice to the same infoset, set one to measure and the other to an attribute.

        But if this is a "non measureable" field - say Process Level - that only lets me select it if I choose something like "Total" or "Count" - but those are not applicable to a string field. Or am I missing something?

          Not sure I follow. What is the data type of the field? Also, what query language are you using, dme or sql?

            This is a string field - but this could apply to dates, etc... The idea is that in the Conditions page of the info set at the right hand side where the columns/fields are listed - only fields that are flagged as "measures" display there to be able to select to apply any conditions to - not any attribute type fields. The only way I can see doing this is through the original query - regardless of if it is SQL or DME.

              I have the same problem. I want to apply a condition to a column in the Infoset but I can't because the column is not listed in the columns/fields box because it is an attribute (the data type of the field/column is string). Where you able to come up with a solution?

                I figured out that you don't need to have any fields in the column/fields list box. If you choose has new items or has new keys in the condition, it will apply to all the fields in the Infoset.
