The Filter Bar is an important part of BI reports, allowing users to filter and screen report data. Typically, the filter bar is located at the top or sidebar of the report and can use different conditions and parameters to filter data, such as date ranges, regions, product types, etc. The filter bar allows users to more easily view the data they need and reduce noise in reports. Filter bars can control different levels of filtering conditions depending on their location:Documentation Index
