Date slicer - Multi dates

Anonymous — Mon, 18 Oct 2021 18:09:53 GMT

Hello All,

I'm trying to create a date filter with following scenario:

1. IF Monday - Display Fri date

2. IF Tuesday - display Sat , Sun, Mon dates

2. Rest all Day - 1

I want to display like below :

Slicer Date Date

10/12/2021 10/11/2021

10/10/2021

10/09/2021

10/11/2021 10/08/2021

10/10/2021 10/09/2021

10/09/2021 10/08/2021

Tried below option:

DATE = IF ( 'DateDim' [DayofWeek] = "Monday", 'DateDim'[Date] - 3,

IF ( 'DateDim' [DayofWeek] = "Tuesday",

VAR Current_date = LASTDATE('DateDim'[Date])

VAR NumberofDays = WEEKDAY(LASTDATE('DateDim'[Date]) ,1)

RETURN DATEADD(Current_date, -1 * NumberofDays, DAY),

'DateDim'[Date] -1 ) )

Result : for 10/12/2021 it shows 10/09/2021 date only. I want to see 10/09 , 10/10, 10/11

TIA

Hi Anonymous

Based on test, we haven’t found a method to put Date column and Slicer Date column to same table visual. But you may consider this solution.

1 Create a Slicer with Date column from Slicer table

2 Create a Measure to set flag for Date column from Date table

Flag =

var _selecteddate=SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer'[Date])

var _weeknum=WEEKNUM(_selecteddate)

var _weekday=WEEKDAY(_selecteddate,2)

return

SWITCH(

_weekday,

1,IF(MAX('calender'[Date])=_selecteddate-3,1,0),

2,IF((MAX('calender'[Date])>=_selecteddate-3&&MAX('calender'[Date])<=_selecteddate-1),1,0),

IF(MAX('calender'[Date])=_selecteddate-1,1,0))

3 Use Date column to create Table visual and use Flag measure to set filter on this visual

4 Select a date in Slicer, you will get expected date in Table visual

For more details, you can refer to the uploaded pbix file.
