A filtered data extension is generated by filtering fields, filters, and measures and
takes on the same characteristics as the source data extension. To identify a filtered data
extension to sendable or non-sendable, change the source data extension to sendable or
non-sendable. To remove data from a filtered data extension, remove the data from the source
data extension, and then refresh the filtered data extension.
