Hi Joe,

I have not tried this, but the Run-If on
HPD:INC:NotificationGenerator_899_PNPC`!
is simply:
'z1D Notification Message Tag' != $NULL$

So the first thing I would try is building the workflow to monitor for your
conditions where a notification should *not* fire (on submit, modify,
whatever) and then make sure you $NULL$ 'z1D Notification Message Tag'
before execution order 899.

The first evaluation in your Run-If(s) should be 'z1D Notification Message
Tag' != $NULL$, which means a notification is about to fire. So your
Run-If(s) should be something along the lines of:
'z1D Notification Message Tag' != $NULL$ AND (any other field conditions
where you do *not* want notifications to fire).

Your one action would be a set fields mapping of:
'z1D Notification Message Tag' value of  $NULL$

This is the first thing that comes to mind if I needed to do this with
custom filters and avoid having to overlay & modify OOB filters.

Not sure how many conditions and use-cases you need to monitor for, but I
would try to have them all fire as close to execution order 899 as I could,
just to be sure.

Best of luck with it!
