# How to use Page Filters in the Portal?

## This article addresses the role of page filters and their functionality.

*Background*

- A Page Filter is used to put a specified lens over a single report page.
- The three common groups we draw our page filters from are the Location, Product, and Calendar/Relative Period areas of the cube
- There is no limit to how many page filters you can have on any one page. If a large request, it will have to be sized up accordingly.
- Below are the two current ways we can display the page filters

1\. Within a Panel on the Left-Hand Side of the Page

- The Panel on the Left is known as a Page Filter Component
- Key Functionality includes: 
    - Ability to multi-select and single select within filters
    - Ability to change between different types of calendars (financial, retail, gregorian, date-range) on the same page.
    - A defer layout button that allows you to make as many filter selections as you want (without having to wait for a load each click) and then apply them all at once.
    - A Save Icon, which, when selected, saves your filter selections in the Data Panel for each future login.   
                                   
                               Multi-Select                                                         Single Select

                                        Calendar                                                             Date Range

                       Defer Layout Button

2\. Along the Top of the Page

![](https://fundamentals.theretailscore.com/hubfs/image-png-Aug-24-2021-10-48-22-33-PM.png)

- This option is our older method of the two.
- Supports buttons, like the calendar example shown above
- Supports multi & single select filters
- Limitations: 
    - Doesn't support Defer Layout
    - Doesn't support both Calendar and Date Range on the one page
    - Doesn't fix to the top of the page when scrolling, making it difficult for the user to see what has been applied
    - Visually has a limitation on how many filters can be applied one row
