Create a numeric parameter ranging from 1 to the maximum number of days you want to be able to filter for. Then create a measure like
Closure date within X days = VAR ChosenDays = [Num Days Value] VAR RefDate = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Closure Date] ) VAR DaysDiff = DATEDIFF ( TODAY (), RefDate, DAY ) VAR Result = IF ( DaysDiff <= ChosenDays, 1 ) RETURN ResultAdd that measure as a filter to your table or matrix visual, set to show only when the value is 1.

Sorry i did tried it but its not working . I am getting 1 value even if i select any number on parameter . I need like if i select 20 on parameter . It should show categories having closure date in next 20 days from today .

This calculation worked but i need to change it a bit as it will give past dates than today as well. I included >today in and condition for Var Result.
