Linked Filters

Parent/child linked filters are similar to parent/child filter groups, however there is no need for a logical hierarchical relationship between the filters. When working with filters, note that:

• When the business user selects the parent filter, it filters the result set of the child filter. This approach helps to narrow down the choices in a child filter.
• A child filter can have more than one parent.
• Only filters of type query are supported for linked filters.
• Either embedded or standard filters or both can be used in linked filters. A standard filter can link to an embedded filter, and vice versa.
• A date picker filter can be a parent filter but not a child filter. A child filter is affected by its parent date picker when the date picker operator is one of the following: =, <, >, <=, >=, not equal, is not missing. Range filters (between, outside) are not supported for a parent date picker filter.
• A slider filter can be a parent filter but not a child filter. A child filter is affected by its parent slider when the slider operator is one of the following: =, <, >, <=, >=, not equal, is not missing. Range filters (between, outside) are not supported for a parent slider filter.
