Answer / arun kiran
We use filter to view limited data. For eg:
a list report with two columns country and revenue
eg: china 1235939
india 40393493
japan 938743739
US 32478327
UK 9420834028
if you drag a filter in query explorer and in expression box
you typed country = 'japan'.. if you run the report you will
be able to view only japan 938743739. you limited data to
japan. if you want to see for two or three or more use IN
function

Answer / piggynet
Filters are used to secure,limit or restrict the data. for
examples
if we only want to see product name and revenue by product
you can use the filter. (filtering data)
if we want to show regional manager sales data only for
his region we can user filter on region column (restricting
data)
