Group Settings
Filters Tab
If the Perform by Server option is checked, any filter configured in this tab is put into the WHERE clause of the query sent to retrieve data for the group. Otherwise, the configured filtering is performed by the reporting engine after the values are returned. It is recommended to leave this setting checked as the performance is much better.
