How to access what's new:

- Select the ‘filter’ icon in the toolbar, just to the right of ‘insert chart’ or alternatively in ‘Tools’ -> ‘Filter’.
- Once you’ve selected your data set, clicking on the drop down icon in the header rows will give a set of filter options. Here, you can change sorting, select specific filters, search and perform bulk actions.
