Advocate IIISync slicers with bookmarks
Purpose: Synce slicer across Bookmarks.
Background: I would like my date slicer to sync across bookmarks. In the below example I selected Q3 as my time frame in the "Everyone" bookmark. However, when I go to the "Mountaineering" bookmark my time frame selection is removed.
Can slicers sync across bookmarks and pages? Or only pages?
Slicers sync across pages, not bookmarks. That being said, it is possible that perhaps if you turn on selection controls that you may be able to achieve your desired result. My thinking is that perhaps you can save your bookmark without cross filters and then perhaps your synchronized slicers might work and not get their values removed by the bookmark.

slc7456It Worked!
I unselected Data from each of my bookmarks. Then made sure that my filter was synced to the page with my book marks applied. In the below example my page is called "Product Line Variation".
Now when I select a quarter it is carried across my bookmarks!

Sweet! I thought that might work!! :)
I want to have a "between dates" slicers updated when click a bookmark that changes the date range in the slicer on another page. The two slicers are synced but the date range doesn't update on the second page. I can't just deselect the date because the bookmark takes it back to default and I can't uncheck data because data is what I'm changing. Any ideas?

Greg_Deckler I am trying to resolve the issue. I am also trying to understand what you meant by "if you turn on selection controls that you may be able to achieve your desired result. My thinking is that perhaps you can save your bookmark without cross filters and then perhaps your synchronized slicers might work and not get their values removed by the bookmark." Thanks!
