AKA "report-level bookmarks," in addition to just page-level bookmarks.

I would like the option, when creating a bookmark, for that bookmark to "remember" the report page from which the bookmark was created and the filters/selections applied on that page...PLUS the filters/selections applied on all other report pages.

For example, if I have a sales report with many pages...and I want to create a bookmark for a specific client...I want all of the pages of the report to be filtered for that client.

I definitely need this. I had been building bookmarks under the mistaken belief that it would save the drill state on all pages, but it only impacts the current page.

RE: One Bookmark for All Report Pages

We need to display visuals by different levels of a hierarchy. For example, by Continent, Country, State.

We use a bookmark to enable changing the level of the hierarchy on the visuals. (e.g. choose Country and all visuals will show the Country category instead of Continent)

There are dozens of visuals so there are many pages in a report.

Currently bookmarks have to be created on each page, and the user has to click the bookmark on each page. What we need is a bookmark that allows setting the visuals on multiple pages and not just the current page.

Great idea. Default views on slicers and charts is a must!

RE: One Bookmark for All Report Pages

It would also be good if these report-level bookmarks retained which pages are hidden and which aren't.
