Merging Custom Pipeline() Computation with Get_Fundamentals?

If one wished to screen a universe of stocks based on the SQLAlchemy morningstar query method, but combine an additional filter that involved a custom computation (for example ATR) on which to screen stocks further, how might this be implemented? Is there an order of operation regarding these two different methods of filtering a universe of stocks? Thanks for any feedback

Hi Brandon,

You can import certain fields from the Morningstar fundamental data as datasets into your pipeline. You can then add them as custom factors, and rank and filter securities based on these factors. See this example the calculates market cap using shares_outstanding and filters on this value.
