Report Filter:

A report filter conditions appear in the SQL used to retrieve the report result set from the database. The report filter is created as part of the report and is saved with the report definition.

View Filter :

View filters do not modify the SQL for the report like normal report filters do. Instead, view filters are applied to the overall result set after the SQL is executed and results are returned from the data warehouse.

Report Filter: Applied for before calculating the metrics.

We can create a condition from any objects within master projects.

It can re-exeute the report

View Filter: We can apply a condition in memory. Dont re-execute.

We can create a condition from any objects within report objects.

View filter : After execution of the report , calculate the analytical engine so no effect on the SQL ,it is slow performance.

Report Filter: This filter condition is directly thrown into SQL directly when we first run the report and fetches data according to the filter condition. This filter directly communicates with the Database

View Filter: This is a special type of filtering condition where the filter can be applied once the results are back from the Database. This filter communucates with the Analytical engine as the results are already residing there.

View filter can be applied after the metric calculations are done for a report. wherer as report filter is applied in the calculation itself i.e report filter is applied in the where clause of the Sql. view filter are local to the report and report filter can be used for other reports as well.

View Filter: View filter works on the executed report as It is on Analytical engine level. It will on hit the database again to fetch the reuslt. It will only execute on the fetched report result set.

Report Filter: Report Filter is the where condition and it will hit the DB to get the result set. It is added in the SQL that is generated when we have executed the report
