Org Apps Slicer Issue

[arock-well]

I have put two reports into the new Org App feature. However, I'm having an issue with the slicers not maintaining the last used settings between sessions.

Every time I come back into a report, whether moving between reports or coming back into the Org App, the slicers are reset to whatever the intial default slicer settings were. It will not maintian my slicer settings. This is not an issue with Workspace Apps and makes Org Apps not worth pursuing at this point.

Any idea what could be causing this or when a fix will be available?

Sorry to hear. If you do not see the reset filters icon in the upper right hand corner of the report toolbar, the feature has not rolled out to you yet. I see some regions rollout set for the 31st of this month or the following week.

Well, that's the rub isn't it?  I do have "Reset filters, slicers, and other data view changes you've made." right there at the top right of my app.  But, my "Filter all pages" refuses to behave as it should.  

Confirming, this is this "reset filters" button you are talking about?  The green one directly below "Edit App"?

Yes, that is it. I heard back about the full feature. There was some delay in parts of the work. What you see is the first slice. The all pages filters will persist, but I believe you need to reload the report. About the middle of February all should be working same as a report as opened in the workspace.

We have a lot of work to do to get Org Apps complete for GA. Thank you for being patient.

I am sorry to say, but my testing concluded: "Nice try, but no cigar!". 

The reset slicer bug is still here, and still too annoying to present to real users. We have F64 capacity in Sweden. It seems we have gotton the new version: The reset filters icon in the upper right hand corner of the report toolbar is there... And it is "activated" after a change in filters (i.e. possible to click, else shows a message "...showing standard view...").

The filters - as well as the reset button, is reset when moving to another page of the report. What is a bit strange: It does actually work as it should, *if/when* I have just switched context to anoter Edge (web browser) tab and go back again. Then (after coming back) it actually remebers the filter context when moving to another page in the report. However, when again changig the filter after coming back from the other Edge tab, the changes is not remembered when moving to another page in the report. It is then reset to what it was when coming back from the other Edge tab. This also happens when closing the app and reopening it (i.e. it remebers the filter context set after coming back from another Edge tab and not changes in filters after that. 

All the above described behaviour  were in a newly created Org. app but the report itself is not new (or newly published). 

My conclusion is that "reset slicer bug" is not fixed. It seems someone has tried, but not understood the complexity (IMHO it is not *that* complex) of preserving filters and/or the test cases.

I hope my testing may help you fix the problem within a week or so... We have been very patient and are waiting with excitement. Also, it would be interesting to see some hints of the plan (time frame) for GA availability. Org. app is not rocket science, and has been in preview for more than a year.
