Filter the data in a business question
You can filter the data displayed in the Analysis, Data Quality, and Data Source tabs. The data source and data quality information is displayed in data tables.
The filters you set in a Analysis, Data Quality, and Data Source tab will not change the display of data in the other tabs.
The filters that are available for a business question in the Analysis tab will depend on the type of report used to visualize the business question.
Global Filters: Global filters are shared by multiple business questions. If you define a global filter in one business question, it will also be applied to all other business questions until you change the filter in another business question.
Report Filters: Report-specific filters are only defined for a single business question. Once set, the filter will be applied to the business question whenever you access it until you actively re-set it.
Column Filters: If the business question is visualized as as data table, you can filter the data by defining conditions to apply to a row in the dataset. The filter conditions will already be set in the filter panel if you have defined filters via column headers of the data workbench. For information about how to define a query to for column filters, details about specifying conditions for columns, see Filter the data in columns in a data table.
To change the data displayed for the business question, click the Filter Settings icon to open the filter panel. Define filter criteria and click Update to update the business question.
