Hi,
You can certainly migrate slices of the data in a form using RRR|Chive. You
just add a normal qualification line with the Advanced Search syntax.
qual = ('Field' = "XYZ")
You would also typically skip the merge filters entirely to prevent the target
server of controling/changing the data:
target_disablemergefltr = YES
