Troubleshooting & FAQs

Q: Why aren't my table customisations saving?

Personal table customisations in registers do not auto-apply to tables on your report or dashboard. To keep customisations, apply them to a dashboard table — dashboard changes save automatically.

Q: Can I save a filter to reuse later?

Filters in registers remain active until you click Reset or Remove all. Filters applied to dashboard tables are saved automatically and can be restored using Version History if needed.
