# 'Begins with' & 'Ends with'

```
How does 'Begins with' & 'ends with' filter work?
```

The '**Begins with'** filter finds all the records with a specific prefix and their related character.

**For Example,** we need to filter all the Variant SKUs that begin with "**CSBK"**. Hence, the **'Begins with'** condition filters all the SKUs beginning with 'CSBK', as shown below.

The **'Ends with'** filter finds all the records with a specific suffix and their related characters.

**For Example,** we need to filter all the Variant SKUs that end with **"02"**. Hence, the **'Ends with'** condition filters all the SKUs ending with '02', as shown below.
