Old UX - Update parent selection based on child selection

hgrosen

Been searching the forum but cannot find a good answer to this challenge.

In the old UX, we have dashboards with e.g. two modules where one applies Level 2 (e.g. department) of a hierarchy as a dimension whereas the other applies Level 3 (e.g. employee) of the same hierarchy as a dimension. What we want to achieve is that when we change the Level 3 selection, the two modules should update so that they show the selected Level 3 item, and the corresponding Level 2 parent item. The synchronized paging works fine when all modules and graphs are on the same hierarchy level but we cannot find a simple way to update the Level 2 based module based on the Level 3 selection.
We can of course create a boolean in filter module with Level 3 items, update the parent based on this, and apply result as filter for both modules in the dashboard but better if we could just sync both by clicking on the Level 3 item.

The page filter sync will not work for both levels simultaneously when selecting a level 3 item so will play a bit more with the filter module approach as you suggested.

 

Thanks Chris!
