the Relative Date filter options for the calendar week goes from sunday through saterday.

Most companies I know, go from Monday through Sunday. Please give us the option to choose in the filter, or set it though the localization.

It's also needed in the worlds largest shipping company - if that matters :-)

Monday is the first day of the week (ask The Bangles and The Boomtown Rats). Please update the relative date slicer to allow us to configure it to use Monday as the first day of the week if needed, just like DATEFIRST = 1 in SQL - basic functionality.

It's very basic functionality. I understand MS is a US company, but your products are used and sold across the globe. In Europe for instance, weeks starts on Monday! Surly, this is a merely small tweak to the code, which shouldn't too long to fix. Yet it has been months.

I fully agree, doesn't seem so hard to be able to make this flexible, but very very badly needed inmy company.

Have just come across the need for this. Would be very beneficial.
