Anchor Date change not Updating on Slicer or for linked Visualizations

Hi Power BI Team, 

 

I am using Power BI to report Sales Pipeline for my Business. 

 

I noticed, when producing this weeks report, when I change the Anchor Date for our Slicer:

 

A - Our Visualisations are not updating according to this new Anchor Date.

B-  Synced Slicers on other pages are not updating according to the new Anchor Date. 

 

A workaround for the issues above is to: 

1- Change the Anchor Date for the Slicer

2- Clear the Selections for the Slicer

3- Reapply the wanted Parameters on the Slicer. 

 

This way the data on the visualisations updates according to the new Anchor Date and the Synced Slicers will also update to the correct new Anchor Date.

Hi @mpw51246 

You manually changed the Anchor Date of the slicer , but the Visualisations related to your slicer do not update . Synced Slicers also don't update ,right ? Can you describe the steps in detail by screenshots or video ?
