filter pane discription

Is there a way to get the filter pane description circled in red to display when the filter pane is used?

See red arrow.

Should they not be the same?

They should be same.

But you might have used an expression at the place of Dimension and not plain field.

Yes I did, I would of thought it would use the description instead of the actual expression.

No way around that?

A field called "Date" does not exist, selections are actually made in the underlying field(s) you are using in your expression. You should "scope" your expression with an aggr() and a fieldname.  I can't tell what fieldname you are using in your screenshot, but as an example I'll use "ShipDatetime". Then your expression should be:

=aggr(Date(Floor(ShipDatetime)), ShipDatetime)

Your current selections bar would then show selections for the field "ShipDatetime".   See Scoping Selections with Aggr() | Qlikview Cookbook for more info.

Whatever formatting you have done there in expression editor of Filter pane, do that in Load script and use modified field over there in Filter pane

If I understand correctly your issue, Create a master Dimension for the expression you wrote for the filter and use that Master Dimension as Field

After creating Master dimension also it will show expression in Selection bar
