I have a slicer that contains a list of vaues ranging from 1 to 13. These values represents periods in the financial calandar.
When a report opens, I want to default to the current period being selected in the slicer. I already have a date table that has a column that indicates what the current period is. The hard part appears to be dynamically changing what is selected in the slicer.
How do you dynamically change what is selected in a slicer?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I don't think this is supported but you could do something like create a calculated column, where you would compute the current period as 1, and then the second as 2, then 3, 4, ..., 13. Then put that column as a slicer on your page and select 1 and publish it like that. If a month is a financial period then the calculated column could be something like:
MonthOffset =Datediff(Today() - << your date >>, Today(), MONTH)
Hence, the slicer is not selected dynamically (always 1), but the page is always filtered on current period when you open the report.
You may take a look at the following post.
