In my report I added 2 slicers, both sigle selection. Equipment slicer interact with Year Slicer but not opposite So when I choose the equipment is loading in the other slicer the year belongs to this equipment.

When I choose the Equipment 2, the year slicer still with the previous option selected and the year which belongs to Equipment 2 2022.

the goal, everytime the user click in Equipment the Year slicer will display no option selected until the user clicked.

Hi @RWRW 

Due to the single-select nature of slicers, where one option is always "selected," the functionality you mentioned is unfortunately not available.

Alternative Solutions:

  1. Bookmarks: You can create the desired functionality using bookmarks, but this approach is less recommended.

  2. Hierarchical Slicer: Instead of using two separate slicers, you can employ a single hierarchical slicer. This will allow you to filter the data based on multiple levels of the hierarchy
