# Configure include filters

Before you begin

Create ECSpec reports

Include filters allow you to specify which tags will be included in an ECSpec report. You can filter tags based on any of the fields for the tag format chosen.

If there are any include filters, tags that match at least one include filter pattern will be included in the report unless they also match an exclude filter. If there are no include filters, then tags will be included unless they match any exclude filters.

You use the ECSpec Editor to create include filters:

1. Display ECSpec Editor.
2. In the left pane of the ECSpec Editor, select Reports.

   Each report for this ECSpec is listed in the Reports table.

3. Select the radio button next to the report for which you want to configure include filters and click Include Filters.

   The Include Filters table displays the include filters for that report.

4. Click New.
5. On the Tag Format page, select the Tag Format for the include filter and click Next.

   For more information on tag formats, see EPCglobal Tag Data Standards.

6. On the Create Include Filter page, fill in the fields for that tag format (the fields shown depend on the format chosen), and click OK.

   For detailed information, see ECFilterSpec.

7. To add more report filters to the current ECSpec, repeat steps 2 through 5.

   Changes are saved when you deploy the ECSpec.

8. When you have finished adding report filters to the ECSpec, deploy it as described in Create ECSpecs.
