what are summary filters? grouped filters?..

Answer / ankita s

Summary filers are used when you want to apply filter the aggregated values.

While detailed filer worked at lower level of data/values in the columns.

E.g
1) Detailed filters -> [Quantity] < 2000
2) Summary filter -> [Quantity] = maximum([Quantity] for [Company])

In #1 you get report output at detailed level while in #2 you get summarized data.
