An Example

The example below shows data about employees' time worked in particular pay periods. With this unfiltered data, the Subtotal function used at the bottom of the Hours column reflects the maximum number of hours worked by any employee.

The image below shows the results of filtering the data. After applying a filter so that only Justin's information is visible, the Subtotal function calculates the maximum hours that Justin worked.
