Use Slicer to Filter, Sort and Group the data in all report visuals

Hi there,

 

My client has a specific requirement, not sure if it is possible in Power BI.

aakif_aslam_0-1672823049938.png

 

As per the image shared, the client basically wants to have -

  1. Slicer 1 to Filter the data in the report (Basic slicer functionality)
  2. Slicer 2 to Group the data with selected Dimension ?
  3. Slicer 3 to Sort the data in the report by selected dimension (default - Asc) ?

 

It'll be a great help if somebody can confirm the possibility to achieve this.

@aakif_aslam , For Group by you, can use field parameters

For sort, I doubt slicer can do, you have to check if bookmark and buttons can help

Hi @amitchandak, thank you for the help it works.

For sorting, bookmarks is a good option but for limited number of measures.
