Interface that helps users easily build filters Merged

Currently, users write logical expressions in Jet Reports using C/AL Operators. While use of these operators are understood better by users who also use them in Dynamics NAV, they are not as intuitive to users as graphical interfaces that use visual layout and natural language to construct logical expressions. A feature that allows users to build logical expressions would enable more effective use of filters (see examples in attached images). Some advantages of this tool could include:

Adding OR and AND clauses
Differentiating between EQUALS, CONTAINS, DOES NOT EQUAL, and DOES NOT CONTAIN
Detecting numeric and date fields and providing operators like GREATER THAN, LESS THAN, DATE RANGE, IN THE LAST X MONTHS, etc.
