Filters can be configured against Power BI reports at each level of the architecture: report, report page, and visual. As report filters are configured at design time and not exposed on the canvas like slicers, filters provide a powerful, efficient method of customizing elements of reports to specific needs. Report and page level filters that align with the user or team accessing the report, or with specific entities to be analyzed, deliver immediate focus and a level of organization. For example, a report page built for one product category can be duplicated for other product category pages, with each page containing a different page level filter. Visual level filters deliver maximum flexibility, as complex filtering conditions including measures can be defined in addition to any report and page level filters.
