Which statement about the Member Filter field for a Member List parameter is correct?

• A. To determine which members will display in the drop-down list
• B. To determine the members to exclude from the drop-down list
• C. To determine the friendly name displayed in the drop-down list
• D. To determine the data type of the parameter

Answer: (A)

The field is used to control which members appear in the drop-down by restricting the set of members from the dimension that the parameter references. In other words, it acts as an include filter—only members that meet the filter criteria will be shown for selection. It doesn’t determine the label shown for each member (that’s the member’s display name) or the data type of the parameter (that comes from how the parameter is defined). So this field is about deciding which members are available to pick from in the drop-down.
