Adding a number of days to a date column using a user selected number

WobblyDog — Sat, 25 Mar 2023 08:38:18 GMT

I am looking to calculate an invoice due date by adding a number of days to the invoice issued date. The invoiced date is a date column and I want to be able to allow the user to select a number of days to add based on the customer payment terms. I would like the user to be able to pick from a list of numbers eg 1 to 90 and have this added to the invoiced date in a new column called due date.

hi WobblyDog

Try to

1.Add a slicer with an isolated table Slicer[TermDays]

2.plot a table visual with [OrderNumber] (supposing there is one) , [invoice issued date] columns and a measure like:

due date =

MAX(TableName[invoice issued date])

SELECTEDVALUE(Slicer[TermDays])
