Report Level Filters' Sequence
- 8 years ago
Hi there,
I'm using this workaround:
Instead of writing "1_" or "2_" before name of the filtered metric, use certain number of spaces (" "). The higher you need the filter, the more spaces, e.g.:
" Zone"
" Region"
"Branch"
The spaces stays, but they're not shown neither on the right field menu, nor in filters.
The same works when you need to sort legend in visuals.
It's weird, but it works.

I am asking for Report Level Filter/ Page Level Filters.
Hi,
I have 3 report filters named as "Zone" --"Region"-- "Branch". This is also a hierarchy sequence and branch is the least level.
But on Filter Section these are appearing as Branch--Region--Zone.. (by default alphabetically)
Users are getting issues. They supposed to select first Zone then filtered Region and then branch .. instead of selecting branch first.
do we have any property or any work around to get rid of.

Anonymous I can reproduce your issue. I don't think currently there is a way to sort filters on the filters pane. You may have to use some alternatives such as use combination of slicers / filters, just slicers. One way I can think is to have three slicers on the report with Zone at top and have an arrow that shows next slicer and arrow to show third slicer. Also you can submit it as an idea to sort filters.
