Add column from slicer value to compare with other column

[Anonymous]

Hi

I would like to calculate the duration using datediff (DAY) between a date column X and a date selected in the slicer , knowing that the slicer is based on the same date column X.

after that, i will use these durations as x_axis in histogramme to compare number of lignes for each duration.

Any help Please

Hi @Anonymous ,

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1) We can create a measure.

Duration = DATEDIFF(SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer'[Date]),MAX('Table'[Date]),DAY)

(2) Then the result is as follows.

(3)Use this measure as the X-axis in your histogram visualization.

If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some sample data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. Thank you.

Best Regards,

You cannot create a column from a measure or filter.

Please provide a more detailed explanation of what you are aiming to achieve. What have you tried and where are you stuck?
