# How do I exclude a PR from rework/maintenance/new work calculation?

**Excluding commits on the Coding Screen**:

* On the **Coding** screen, you can exclude **commits** but not pull requests (PRs).
* This approach provides a more granular view, allowing you to drill down into specific commits responsible for spikes in **rework**, **maintenance**, or **new work**.

**Excluding pull requests**:

* To exclude an entire PR, use the **Process** screen or the **Pull Request** screen.
* These sections are designed for managing PR-level exclusions, offering a broader view of work at the PR level.

This differentiation ensures that you can focus on the level of detail most relevant to your analysis i.e. commit-level insights on the Coding screen and PR-level actions on the Process or Pull Request screens.
