Dashboard Keeping Last Filters
Resolved
Hi guys,
I'm having an issue that regards the ability to return to default filter values. After upgrade to the new Yellowfin 9.3.1, after using some filter in a dashboard tab, even if I logout the system and then return, the filter used will keep.
This wasn't happening in older versions of Yellowfin as tested. Our clients are complaining that the default values are not being respected and Yellowfin should not apply the last filter used in that dashboard.
Is there some setting / configuration needed to make Yellowfin always return to default filter value after logout?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Renato Marcello
The same problem 
Hi Renato,
I have run some tests and can confirm the same behaviour. It seems that the option for 'Remember Me' is still being referenced even after log-outs. This didn't behave the same way in v8. It also doesn't seem to affect reports, only specific to dashboards.
I have logged this as a product defect for review, an unfortunately until I get an update (which is going to be hard over the holiday break), the only option you have right now is to ;
-Let users know to use the 'Reset' button to revert to the default filter value.
OR
-Disable the 'Remember Me' functionality.
Sorry for the inconvenience this has caused and I'll keep you posted on updates. Please let me know if you have any more questions on this or if there was anything else I can help you with.
Thanks,
David

Hi David,
The second option seems a more friendly option to our users, however, even when I disable this option, the dashboard still loads the last used filter.
Thanks a lot,
