Sync Slicers on different PBX Files

Hello

 

I have a set of slicers in one PBX file called PD_Reports.PBIX (Fig 1). 

 

I have a simmilar set of slicers in another PBX file called Annual_Sales.PBIX(Fig 2).

When I drill through to a page from PD_Reports.PBIX to a Page in Annual_Sales.PBIX I would like the slicer selected in the PD_Reports.pbix to refect in the new page. How can this be achieved

Hi @mbalraj ,

 

To my knowledge, this is not supported in Power BI. Slicers can't be synced among different reports.

 

Here is a similar idea: Microsoft Idea  · Sync slicers between different reports (different PBIX files) (powerbi.com).

HI @mbalraj ,

 

You can use the cross-filter drill-through functionality to achieve this. See below:

Thanks,

Pragati

Thank you Pragathi for your response.

 

However when we try the suggested steps it still does not work

 

I have added a document with a couple of screen shots.

 Image 1 - Shows how we have setup the the reports

Image 2 - shows that the filters are not in sync
