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.

RE: Epic idea: Apply filter selections automatically
I would like to be able to default a slicer to the current month range without setting it to relative date. That way when I need to see back a month or two AND ahead a month or two that I have that option. If I set to relative, I can only go back, current, OR forward.

When use a date slicer, I would like to see the most recent date (at every data update) selected...and...leave the user the ability to select another date if wanted. thanx in advance

Hi Microsoft. I think this request is quite popular. If you're C# developer, this is a default/apparent function of a combox/radio button. So please make this happen.
RE: Epic idea: Apply filter selections automatically
In our case we need to select the current month when the user opens the report. We have a work around done by replacing the current month name in the slicer by 'Current Month' but this is not liked by the customer and he wants the month name to appear. This is an urgent request Microsoft.
RE: Epic idea: Apply filter selections automatically
If I change high-category slicer from Vegetables to Fruits, I want Apples to be selected automatically in a low-category slicer. Currently low-category slicer keeps Carrots, so obviously empty set is return form such slicer configuration.

RE: Epic idea: Apply filter selections automatically
Not sure how this has been overlooked- many other BI platforms have this and have had this for a very long time.
Users should be able to see their data with a default view of a specific day (such as today)- however, they should also be a way for them to look at their data as of a specific date. This is especially important when viewing time based data such as Month-to-Date and/or Year-to-Date. Although it may be important to see these measures as of 'today', we need to be able to see these measures as of ANY day, if the user wants to.

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
