Why is it that you cannot turn on the search function in a slicer if it is a date or number field? Why does this only work with text? This is SO frustrating!
an issue with this:
if you have mostly 7 digit numbers in a Text field, but some numbers are only 4 digits, the search function is unable to return the smaller numbers- e.g. searching "4147" returns a list of 7 digit numbers that END with 4147. The number that was searched for does not even appear at the end of the list.
Not preferred, but could be somewhat resolved by duplicating the column and adding a space, whereafter you could type 4147 +spacebar to search for only this value.
