**Issue:** Named filter does not appear but if you attempt to save filter with same name an error message says filter already exists.

**Reason:** An Unamed Filter was created then later saved with a name. Filter_DefinitonSQL does not save and filed is left empty.

Solution -

```sql
select * from tblSYSFilter
where ISNULL(Filter_Definition, '') ='' and ISNULL(Filter_DefinitionSQL, '') =''
```
