Next Button to advance filter selection
Hi dgwilson,
One way to do this is not to add the button to go to previous \next customer but add a button the shows\hides the slicer.
Using tge bookmark option and a button you can open the slicer and then hide it back.
There is no way of going to next record by a button since you would have to create a bookmark for every selection youhave, another option is to use a slicer for numbers that only select a single number (customer ID for example) and making it slide throug wiuk give you next \previous.
Some options if you want I can send you some examples of this two setups.

Hi dgwilson,
I am not very clear about your purpose.
If you want to advance the filter selection via clicking a button so that the report page can show details of each customer one by one, why do you insert a slicer from which, you can select the customer name you want to display on page?
If you want to switch across multiple bookmarks via button, please refer to this article.

Hi v-yulgu-msft
You raise a good point. I could include the customer filter on the page. I should provide more context.
Adding the customer filter/slicer to the page will take up screen space that I do not have and the filter is not part of the data being presented. I do already have the filter/slicer on another page and I am syncing the filter across pages. The pain I'm trying to avoid is for users to have to switch pages, back and forth, between the filter page and the customer data page. This is where the "next customer" / "previous customer" button would function.
Hope that provide a better explanation.

Hello MFelix I would really like to see PBI sample of the two method you are talking. The hide slicer and bookmark, and the single Select slicer. Thanks
