In A theorem on supports in the theory of semisets [Comment. Math. Univ. Carolinae 14 (1973), no. 1, 1–6] B. Balcar showed that if $\sigma \subseteq D\in M$ is a support, $M$ being an inner model of ZFC, and $𝒫(D\setminus \sigma )\cap M=r``\sigma$ with $r\in M$, then $r$ determines a preorder "$⪯$" of $D$ such that $\sigma$ becomes a filter on $(D,⪯)$ generic over $M$. We show that if the relation $r$ is replaced by a function $𝒫(D\setminus \sigma )\cap M=f_{-1}\left(\sigma \right)$, then there exists an equivalence relation "$\sim$" on $D$ and a partial order on $D/\sim$ such that $D/\sim$ is a complete Boolean algebra, $\sigma /\sim$ is a generic filter and ${\left[f\left(u\right)\right]}_{\sim }=-\sum (u/\sim )$ for any $u\subseteq D$, $u\in M$.
