When entering the "See Records" view, it allows you to decide which columns you view while you are in the "See Records", but after exiting "See Records" it reverts to the original view and removes the edits.

There should be an option to save the edits made within the "See Records" view so the unnecessary columns can be removed and the important information can be viewed more easily, and can be saved so the report keeps the edits made when saved.

RE: See Records Column Setup

People is screaming for having a feature to configure See Records. What needs to happen for Microsoft to action on this??

RE: See Records Column Setup

We got to be able to disable drill to 'See Records' and organize what columns to show once we see them. It's a very basic function most if not all other tools have. We haven't bought a single license because some areas where it is most important need polishing.

Has PowerBI-team even commented on this issue? This is very much needed, am doing a huge workaround now to deliver my colleagues what they want.

RE: See Records Column Setup

Agree. Very dysfunctional. Not only are columns in the wrong order, there are duplicate columns. No idea why this is still broken.

RE: See Records Column Setup

One of the most obvious use cases of PBI is to display compelling visuals that tell the story at a high-level while allowing the user to drill down to the underlying data / specific records that comprise the high-level. This is almost as important as the visual. Please add and do so in a way that makes it readable (e.g. wrap text in columns, reorder columns, allow calculated values, etc.)
