Filters break when you use a bookmark button
- 8 years agoHi there
Unchecking “Data” in each bookmark’s properties (ellipsis menu next to bookmark name) should ensure slicer states are preserved.

OwenAuger , brilliant - thank you!
I was looking every where wondering why this was happening.
I already removed one 'data' field option - I needed to remove both for the functionality to work as intended.

An alternative solution si to "update" your bookmark : select the target page (of the bbokmark) with your filters, display the bookmark panel select the related bookmark and click on "update boookmark" to update the related filters.
This works as it is the default (if not intuitive) bookmarks behabiour . A bookmark = link to a given report page with a set of filters & sort orders.
Therefore, if you don't have filters or sort orders when you create a bookmark, each time you click on it, your page will be displayed as it was when you initalised your bookmark : with no filters or sort orders. Hence, updating your bookmark wil enable to generate the expected behaviour.
Best regards,

To the point I avoided bookmarks
