Selection Criteria for Alternate State wiped out on App Restart

[sumeet_1402]

I am new to Qlik Sense. I tried to create a dashboard to compare performance of 4 products. I had to create 4 alternate states to compare 4 different products on the same sheet. I filtered out the product for each alternate state but my filter selection wiped out once I restart the app. How can I achieve the default selection. Also I don't want to show Product filter pane for charts as I don't want to allow anyone to change the products being shown in each chart.

You can achieve this by creating bookmark

As @DavidM mentioned, a bookmark is probably the way to go. 

I got one question:

Is it always the same four products  you want to compare? Maybe SET analysis is an alternative your alternative states?

=SUM({<Product = {'Product A'}>]YourField)

=SUM({<Product = {'Product B'}>]YourField)

=SUM({<Product = {'Product C'}>]YourField)

=SUM({<Product = {'Product D'}>]YourField)

Thanks @Vegar for giving me an alternate solution. Yes, It's always the same four products, but I wanted to achieve this using the original fields coming in data source because of some protocols I need to follow while building the dashboard. I don't want to create new items or use set analysis.

I achieved it using bookmarks as asked by @DavidM . Thanks 🙂
