When i edit a report, it automatically crunch's my data. I would like to have the ability to stop this and allow me to directly edit the report query. I have to wait for the report to load and in some cases it ends in a timeout.

A simple button that stops the data from loading and allowing me to edit would be ideal.

Good idea. I'm assuming you are referring to the Report Builder flow for this right ? We'll probably just add an 'Apply' setup like we do when you add a filter.

That is exactly what i would like to see. Sometimes when we build a report in your Report Builder, we may not realize the amount of data that will be processed therefore if we see its taking too long or can go and edit the report directly, it would help from wasted time having the system come back.

1) Adding the Apply button like you stated from the beginning
2) Ability to stop the process of crunching the data when we see its taking way too long
