Selection on one page to affect multiple other tabs

[Giorgi1989]

Dear All,

I have built a report that is heavily relying upon bookmarks. 

The problem I am facing now is that I want a selection on one page to affect visuals on OTHER tabs. 

I employ two slicers (Customer/Product) on my main page, which are perfectly synced and affect all those visuals in other hidden tabs.  So, so far so good! 

But, I have another bookmarked button (changes view from Month to Year), which I am trying to figure out how I could make it also affect the visuals on hidden tabs. 

I have about 15 hidden tabs, with visuals that show various data by month. I want to make it so that when a 'Yearly' button is clicked, those visuals also display Years. 

Unfortunately, currently we don't have a functionality to enable bookmarks to affect other tabs.

Maybe anyone has encountered such a situation before and has come up with some clever workaround?

Thank you!

Hi @Giorgi1989 ,

You can do this using synced slicers or drillthrough.

Simply go to your report, click on "View" > "Sync slicers pane"

Please refer to the following document for more information.

Thank you for your reply. I have no issues with syncing slicers (as I said in my original post, I have 2 slicers that I use succesfully to sync across all hidden tabs). The problem lies with a bookmarked button. What I was trying to ask is whether there would be any possibility, on the basis of the selection on the bookmarked button (Month/Year view) to affect visuals on hidden tabs?

Hi @Giorgi1989 ,

Bookmarks can be used to capture the current state of a report page. Even if the report page is hidden, it does not affect the role of bookmarks. Please note that there are also some limitations to using bookmarks.

I think it will help you to refer to the following documentation for the visibility of bookmarks and what properties bookmarks can save.
