Filters In MDX Statement

Question

I've got an MDX query that I need to add a FILTER to and not quite sure how to accomplish this without ruinging the results of the original query.
Here is the original query:
WITH
SET [Selected Discipline] AS STRTOSET(@Disciplines, CONSTRAINED)
SET [Selected Department] AS STRTOSET(@Departments, CONSTRAINED)
SET [Selected Departments] AS IIF(@Disciplines = @Departments,
FILTER(
DESCENDANTS([Selected Discipline], [Employee].[DISC - DEPT - EMP].[Department], AFTER),
NOT INSTR([Employee].[DISC - DEPT - EMP].CurrentMember.UNIQUE_NAME, "Freelance")),
DESCENDANTS([Selected Department], [Employee].[DISC - DEPT - EMP].[Department], AFTER))
SET [TTM] AS { LastPeriods(12, StrToMember(@SelectedMonth, CONSTRAINED)) }
SELECT
[Measures].[Employee Hours],
[Measures].[Employee Hours %]
} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN(
[Selected Departments],
[Employee].[Employee Bill Rate].[Employee Bill Rate].ALLMEMBERS,
[Employee].[Employee Level].[Employee Level].ALLMEMBERS,
[TTM])
DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS
FROM [OLSON BI]
WHERE (
[Employee Hours Time Category].[Time Category].&[Client Facing],
[Employee Hours Time Category].[Utilization Category].&[PRODUCTION])
CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS
I'd like to add this additional filter to the above query:
FILTER ([Employee].[Manager Name].[Manager Name].Members ,
NOT InStr([Employee].[Manager Name].CurrentMember.MEMBER_NAME, "O-Tern")
If anyone can provide any guidance on this, it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Hello,
Try something like below.
WITH
SET [Selected Discipline] AS STRTOSET(@Disciplines, CONSTRAINED)
SET [Selected Department] AS STRTOSET(@Departments, CONSTRAINED)
SET [Selected Departments] AS IIF(@Disciplines = @Departments,
FILTER(
DESCENDANTS([Selected Discipline], [Employee].[DISC - DEPT - EMP].[Department], AFTER),
NOT INSTR([Employee].[DISC - DEPT - EMP].CurrentMember.UNIQUE_NAME, "Freelance")),
DESCENDANTS([Selected Department], [Employee].[DISC - DEPT - EMP].[Department], AFTER))
SET [TTM] AS { LastPeriods(12, StrToMember(@SelectedMonth, CONSTRAINED)) }
SELECT
[Measures].[Employee Hours],
[Measures].[Employee Hours %]
} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY Exists(CROSSJOIN(
[Selected Departments],
[Employee].[Employee Bill Rate].[Employee Bill Rate].ALLMEMBERS,
[Employee].[Employee Level].[Employee Level].ALLMEMBERS,
[TTM])
,FILTER ([Employee].[Manager Name].[Manager Name].Members, NOTInStr([Employee].[Manager Name].CurrentMember.MEMBER_NAME, "O-Tern"))<o:p></o:p>
