Thank you for the video. (1) I do not have access to download the particular visual. Another way to proceed? (2) Instead of the "Current Year", how do you display the "Last available year" in the dataset? Thank You.

Suppose I have 2 preselected slicers product and month dependent on each other, On selecting a product from the product slicer i get the default minimum month selected on the month slicer, when I change the selection on the month slicer manually, and now I go back and select another product on the product slicer, the default on the month slicer vanishes, nothing is selected by default. I need to reset and get back the default selection. Can this be avoided? I mean I do not want to use the reset button.

Thanks for the info. Instead of years I have weeks and I follow your steps but instead of selecting the current week it selects all the weeks by default. Do you know why?
