About Filters in SAS Visual Analytics Explorer

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 modified by using visual filter controls or by using the Edit Filter window.
For more information, 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 more information, see Working with Advanced Filters.
Data source filters
subset a data source for the entire exploration. Data source filters are applied before all other data processing, so statistics like cardinality values and the percentage of total rows that is displayed in the right pane are based on the filtered data. 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.
