The order of advanced filtering

Copper Contributor

Hi, there!

I am now trying advanced filtering. It's really a good tool when the filtering conditions are not so complex, for example, =a1 OR >b2; =a2 AND =b3. 

Is it possible to filter for the condition  (>a1 OR =a2) AND (>b1 OR =b2)?

In Advance Filter AND conditions are in the same row; OR conditions are in another rows. For example

@Sergei Baklan thank you for your reply! However, in your formula, I think the office will execute the filtering in the same line (AND), so the filter will be executed as (A=102 AND B=12) OR (A>107 AND B>19).

Please see the attached EXCEL, the two lines I added, which meet conditions a1 AND b2 / a2 AND b1, will be lost. 

 

In one word, is it possible to change the filtering order in advance filtering (let it filter the conditions in the same row first)?

Not sure I understood you correctly, perhaps you mean such conditions
