Imagine a world where report creators can automatically apply slicer and filter selections based on specific logic, revolutionizing data analysis and user experience. This innovative approach eliminates any need for complex workarounds, optimizes slicer functionality, and paves the way for more efficient and effective data reporting.

There seems to be nothing anyone can say to get Microsoft to take this seriously.

It would still be nice to dynamically set this, so that we could dynamically pre-filter to a User's dept...even if they have never visited the report to set up their filters

We also would like to have the current user pre-selected in a list of multiple users.

RE: Epic idea: Apply filter selections automatically

We need that the first row in the slicers would be the default row selected

This is very important feature. When this will be available?
More than 2500 votes and original idea is shared on March 02, 2015 which s quite long time. When this will be on priority ?

Please provide this feature ASAP as everyone is asking this.

RE: Epic idea: Apply filter selections automatically

We need this for a different purpose than dates. We take monthly snapshots of say our financial forecast and typically the latest one is the one everyone wants to look at while having the ability to switch to another snapshot if needed.
Currently there is no way to default it to the latest one or rather to the one folks care about so we have to kind of force the user to make a selection before going to the report.
Note: Latest or whatever we want to be the default to should be configurable based on logic and not necessarily the latest item in a sorted list.
