MSTR Merge Report filter into metric symbols

Remove related report filter elements

The Remove related report filter elements setting influences the interaction between the metric filter and the report filter. When the check box is selected, if the report filter contains a qualification based on an attribute related to an attribute in the metric filter qualification, the metric filter qualification takes precedence. This is the default.
Depending on the embedding method you select, symbols are added to the metric formula as described in the table below:

Embedding Method	Symbol
Merge into new	@1;
Merge report filter into metric	@2;
Merge metric condition into report	@3;

A symbol is also added to determine if related report filter elements are removed, as described in Remove related report filter elements.
For example, a report contains a Revenue metric and the Category attribute. The metric filter is set to the New York Call Center only and the report filter to all southern regions (South, Southeast, and Southwest).
