    You should use this method to create a BlotterCriteria implementation which will be used to query LBN and filter LBN updates coming in. Records that are returned by LBN query or received on an update will be passed through the filter. If they then pass the filter, the record will then be shown in the blotter.
    
    Throws:
    
    BlotterCriteriaFactoryException - if it was not possible to create a valid query.
