Allow me to utilize SSRS PowerView just like I can with Excel PowerView and pin reports to the dashboard, however with SSRS, I would like to connect to on-prem data sources

Hi Doug, thanks for the suggestion. We have another suggestion for connections to on-prem data sources. Can you elaborate on the SSRS Power View requirement? Do you need to upload existing rdlx reports?

RE: PowerView rdlx connecting to on-prem data source

Need a date slicer type functionality like I have in a pivot table in excel. Is there a work around to filtering data by date on the tiles in the dashboard? When will the developers add this feature?

Definately a must. I'm surprised that it isn't there in the first place?? Should definately be there before going live!

RE: PowerView rdlx connecting to on-prem data source

If global filters can't be added to dashboards, reports would be the next best thing. Basicaly I want how Excel slicers work, you are able to connect them to any chart, table in the workbook. PowerView filters limit you to only the real estate on the current page.

RE: PowerView rdlx connecting to on-prem data source

Functionality would be greatly improved with the ability to "slice and dice" data directly on the tiles on the dashboard. Other solutions (including Microsoft's own Silverlight) accommodate this power and flexibility. Please consider this as a top priority. Thank you!

RE: PowerView rdlx connecting to on-prem data source

First question asked from me about using the dashboards is "where is the filter or slicers for the dashboard". Find it is not there and found this so putting my votes and my support for this feature. We would like to slice an individual chart on the dashboard for some quick review before a drill down.

Uploading existing rdlx reports would be a great feature.
