Interface FilterableItemInterface

public interface FilterableItemInterface

The FilterableItemInterface defines a single filterable item within a data source. A filterable item is something that can have a filter applied to it and should have its own filter model. For example, in an OLAP BusinessQuery, each DataItem may have a filter applied to it and therefore each DataItem can be represented by a FilterableItemInterface.
