Reporting users in my organization are loving the new date slicer with the calendar selection and slider.

Would love to see an option to use a relative date for the start date and end dates. For example, set the default start date to 7 days ago.

Allow the date slicer to remember the last selection a user made.

Additionally limit calendar date selections to actual dates that have data. Currently users may select dates outside of the range of the report which causes the report to go blank. This can be confusing for some users.

RE: Date Slicer Improvements

Agreed on the need for relative start and end dates that pin based on the relative date range selected. The current relative date range slicer is insufficient for users because they need to be able to open the report on a daily basis to a specific date range (current month, quarter, or year), but also be able to specify a custom date range.
