For matrix reports, we now enable multi-select for parameters that connect to filters. When you create new parameters from filters, the
Allow multi-select
option is auto-selected. For parameters you previously connected to filters on existing reports, you can edit the report to change the parameter configuration to multi-select. Multi-select allows report viewers to select multiple options from a single report parameter to see the summary data. Example: Level is a multi-select parameter in a budget report. Report users can view a summary of the operational expenses for all levels that they select.
The
Allow multi-select
option is unavailable for parameters that aren't connected to filters. You can’t use Explore Cell in reports when multiple report parameter options are selected. To use Explore Cell, clear the

You can’t Explore Data in charts when multiple dashboard filters are selected. To use Explore Data, use dashboard filters with single options.
