Which feature can override the value(s) of a row range?

• A. Row Range
• B. Cell Format
• C. List Parameter
• D. Member Filter

Answer: (D)

The ability to override what appears in a row range comes from applying a Member Filter. A row range determines which dimension members you want to see in the view, but a Member Filter actively restricts or substitutes those members, changing the actual data that is retrieved and displayed for the rows. In practice, if you limit the row range to several members but then apply a member filter to a smaller subset (or a different set), the grid shows values for the filtered members instead of the original range, effectively overriding the row range’s values. Cell Format only changes presentation (appearance, not values), so it can’t override data. A List Parameter is used to supply a list of inputs to calculations or processes, not to override the row contents. The Row Range defines which rows are considered, but it’s the member filter that can change which members (and thus which values) are actually used in those rows.
