Exclude/Include desktop vs service

Hi all,

 

I have a matrix visual with 3 levels and when rightclicking in Desktop i get the option to Exclude/Include, but not when doing the same in Service. Anyone experienced this or have an explanation?

Thank you for being awsome!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

I have tested several reports but didn't find this issue. You could shift to New Look, some lost options may appear.

I have done some more testing and this seems to apply only when you have a matrix visual with columns from different tables, works fine to exclude/include in Desktop but not in Service.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

I tried some samples like yours but they worked properly. Will the problem happen when you create this matrix in Service directly?

Thank you for your reply, I have been using new look all the time. 

Tested now to change to old and back to new but still cant exclude/include.

I can confirm that. The Service does not have all of the features of the Desktop.
