Hi @shabirAhmad,
You can create a what if parameter table with number values, then you can use it as source of slicer. After these steps, you can create a measure formula to extract the selection to calculate with current row context data.
Use parameters to visualize variables - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
formula =
VAR selection =
MAX ( WhatIF[Value] )
VAR currDate =
MAX ( Table[Date] )
RETURN
DATE ( YEAR ( currDate ), MONTH ( currDate ), DAY ( currDate ) + selection )
