Remarks

Filter procedure

The filter procedure is used to choose the values that will be taken into account when calculating the Pivot Table control during the call to PVTCalculateAll and PVTCalculateUpdate.
The procedure takes in parameter the value of the key for the row header or column header for which it was defined.
This procedure must return:
  • True to accept the value
  • False to refuse it: the value will not be taken into account in the Pivot Table control.
This procedure is mainly used to speed up the calculation of the pivot table by reducing the volume to process.
Caution: Do not confuse with PVTFilter that applies to the calculated result and that gives a different vision of the result displayed.
