Quick answer
Use a filter view when you need a personal way to inspect shared data. A regular filter can affect the shared worksheet view.
Understand the issue
Decide whether you are narrowing what you see or changing the actual records. Avoid deleting rows simply because they do not match today's task. Name useful views clearly so you can reopen the same perspective later.
Step-by-step checks
- Open the relevant data range.
- Create a filter view and choose the desired criteria.
- Close the view and confirm the underlying records remain intact.
