Using a Tiled Slicer to Drilldown on Date

[WishAskedSooner]

I have been getting some negative feedback about the drilldown icons on a matrix. For example, the first impression to drill down is to click the single down arrow, not the double down arrow or heirachy icon. And who can blame a C-suite user who is constantly stressed and has no bandwidth to figure out the often byzantine design of Power BI visuals? And, I certainly don't want to have to spend time explaining to them how to drilldown. It should be obvious out of the box.

For my matrix, the drilldown is basic: Annual, Quarterly, and Monthly.

Therefore, I would like to create a tiled slicer that has Annual, Quarterly, and Monthly tiles that the user can click to drill down/up, even skipping heirarchies by going straight from Annual to Monthly and vice versa if they want.

Is this possible? Thanks in advance.

@Pragati11 That is exactly what I was looking for and have already implemented it in my dashboard. Thank you so much. This is far more intuitive for the user than the stupid drill icons. Kudos!

Hi @WishAskedSooner ,

I wrote a blog sometime back for similar capability. Let me know if this helps.
