FILTER is a very useful feature for tailoring displays. In addition, consider using S(ELECT on any screen to *temporarily* override any other criteria in place at the moment. Whether you use PREFIX, OWNER, or FILTER, S xxx will display whatever xxx equates to. Examples:
S ABC - shows only task or job named ABC S ABC* - shows all tasks or jobs beginning with ABC S 12345 - shows STC12345 or JOB12345 S * - shows everything SELECT is especially useful when you get a request to help someone with a particular job. You don't have to change PREFIX or FILTER, which would require setting it back to the normal value when you're done. SELECT stays in effect only while you're on the display: DA, O, H, etc. . .

I used it on DA to show only the CICS regions (FILTER STEPNAME EQ CICS in our shop).
