# VKB V2 Filters: Account-Level vs. Case-Level Logic

## A guide to using the new two-layer filtering system to isolate consolidated VKB findings and sample-specific annotations.

### The New Two-Layer Filter System

Following the **Spring 2026 Release**, the Variant Knowledge Base (VKB) has moved to a dual-layer architecture. To support this, the filter panel now features two distinct "Classification" menus.

![](https://support.seqone.com/hubfs/CleanShot%202026-05-07%20at%2012-05-31-png.png)

- **"VKB" Filter:** Use this to filter based on **Consolidated Account-level** annotations (findings shared across your entire organization).
- **"Current Analysis" Filter:** Use this to focus on the **Case-level** evaluations made specifically for the sample you are currently reviewing (including variants already added to your "Selection").

> 💡 **Tip:** You can combine both filters to find variants that have a specific global history *and* a specific status in your current case.

### Filter Logic

The power of the V2 filters lies in how they handle multiple criteria. The system uses a specific combination of **OR** and **AND** logic.

#### 1. Internal Logic: The "OR" Rule

![Example of Current Analysis filter](https://support.seqone.com/hubfs/CleanShot%202026-05-07%20at%2011-55-16-png.png)

Within a **single** filter menu, the logic is **OR**. If you select multiple classifications or tags within one menu, the system will show variants that match *any* of those criteria.

> **Example:** Selecting "Pathogenic," "Likely Pathogenic," and the "Hot VUS" tag in one menu will return variants that are Pathogenic **OR** Likely Pathogenic **OR** tagged as a "Hot VUS."

#### 2. Between-Filter Logic: The "AND" Rule

![](https://support.seqone.com/hubfs/CleanShot%202026-05-07%20at%2011-53-44-png.png)

When you use **both** the VKB and the Current Analysis filters together, the logic between them is **AND**. The variant must meet the requirements of both sets to appear in your results.

- **Filter A (VKB**, figure on the left**):** Global status is Pathogenic OR Likely Pathogenic, OR Tag is "Tier 1", OR Tag is "Tier 2".
- **Filter B (Current Analysis**, figure above**):** Sample status is Pathogenic OR Likely Pathogenic OR includes the "Hot VUS" tag.

**The Result:** You will only see variants where **Filter A AND Filter B** are true: P+LP+hot vus variants reported in your analysis AND classified as P or LP or Tier 1 or Tier 2 in your VKB.
