Reports - Add "does not contain" filter

Currently the report's filters only available to filter thing that " contain " in the respective categories. Can you please also include the option "do not contain" - so that we could produce report to omit things that we would not wish to include. Thank you

    Example: Billable Expenses - Outstanding Report. Its a long list. I want to see just those entries where "On Draft Invoice" = Null. Would make my life so much easier.

    Why do they not have this implemented ? I wish my company could change the accounting package!

    A "negative filter" like this is extremely useful. For example, many time when we run a report we do not want to include transactions containing specific words. A negative filter would exclude these transactions and display everything else that we need.

    Add the option to filter reports by is not/does not equal. Currently the only option is to filter where the value does match. When there is a need to filter out a single payment type, or worse, a contact, from a report the filters show thousands of included rows in the description, and not just the one excluded.

    this is basic functionality of a "filter" without anything other than a "Contains" operator you are simply performing a match.

    Second this! Highly important to me and my business.

    This would definitely make Xero reports a more useful tool. It's aspects like this that force anyone assessing the data to pull it off in to Excel. Wasting time and really should be part of Xero's functionality.

    Would like to request to add "does not contains" in the filter of account transaction.

    Sample Gross amount does not contain "-" so only with balance of negative or positive will show.
    or contains "."

    This is almost same in the Find and recode feature (Contain, is not)

    Or please add filter to not show Gross/net witth no balances "-"

    Thank you
