Record.COPYFILTERS(FromRecord)
Parameters
Record

This function is used to apply the filters defined for one record to another record. The filters are used as a basis for counting, searching, calculating, or a similar operation.
Example
This example requires that you create the following variables.
| Variable name | DataType | Subtype |
|---|---|---|
| Customer1 | Record | Customer |
| Customer2 | Record | Customer |
| Count | Integer | Not applicable |
// Set filters on fields in a Customer record
Customer1.SETFILTER("No.", '<1000');
Customer1.SETRANGE("Credit Limit (LCY)", 10000, 20000);
Customer1.MARKEDONLY(TRUE);
// Apply filters to another record
Customer2.COPYFILTERS(Customer1);
Count := Customer2.COUNT;
The filters defined for Customer1 are copied and applied to Customer2. This affects the result returned by the COUNT Function (Record).
