Is there a way to delete/disable/filter dimension members that are shown as slicer buttons?

Since my data set is huge I cannot display the slicer dimension in my pivottable, and apply a filter there.

Thanks in advance.
 
...we go back into the db and trim out the rows of data that don't match.

How do you trim out rows in PowerPivot?

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
We don't trim rows out of PowerPivot, sorry. You have to delete the "bad" rows in the data source, whatever that is.

In our case, we trim them from the original SQL Server database and then refresh the table in PowerPivot.

Rob,
Thank you for the answer and your clarification.

As you suggested, I got around the problem by filtering the MDX query in the PowerPivot SSAS wizard.
