Unlike regular slicers, hierarchy slicer does not have the option to be sync. across multiple sheets. It would be nice to be able to drive the report based on selections made in the hierarchy slicer

RE: SYNC Hierarchy Slicers across multiple sheets

The hierarchy slicer would become significantly more useful with this functionality.

RE: SYNC Hierarchy Slicers across multiple sheets

I agree. We use one page to set all filters. For some entities we definitely need a hierarchy slicer. Please add this functionality!

RE: SYNC Hierarchy Slicers across multiple sheets

I would also like to see this functionality added - a single set of slicers to control an entire report would make the user experience much stronger

Another idea that covers this one. Allowing Sync Slicers to work with custom visuals:

It has been estimated to come out end of June.... but no updates yet. Let's vote for it!

I agree this functionality is needed badly, any update on when it will be available?

RE: SYNC Hierarchy Slicers across multiple sheets

We need the hierarchy slicer and normal slicer for every report - all slicers are now synchronized, only the hierarchy slicer is not - that's not something that the end customer can really appreciate.

RE: SYNC Hierarchy Slicers across multiple sheets

Sync Slicer Feature is great but it doesn't work with Hierarchy Slicer. This is a really needed in case of designing reports with multiple pages as the user would hate the select the same option again and again in each page. Let us know when can this be implemented

RE: SYNC Hierarchy Slicers across multiple sheets

I think this is under another idea as well.

Syncing... obvious.
