About Filters in SAS Visual Analytics Explorer :: SAS(R) Visual Analytics 6.2: User's Guide

In SAS Visual Analytics Explorer (the explorer), you can create filters to subset your data.

Three types of filters are available:

Basic filters

subset the data for your visualizations by using a single data item. Basic filters can be adjusted by using visual filter controls, or by using the Edit Filter window.

For information about basic filters, see Working with Basic Filters.

Advanced filters

subset the data for your visualizations by using any number of data items. Visual filter controls are not available for advanced filters.

For information about advanced filters, see Working with Advanced Filters.

Data source filters

subset the data for the entire exploration. Data source filters can use any number of data items to select data.

For information about data source filters, see Working with Data Source Filters.

All of your filters are saved when you save your exploration.
