Hi!
I am having trouble with the date filter I have created. It is dynamically made with DAX commands to filter data according to the current date.
I have attached a sample power bi file of this filter. The issue I am having is I would like the filter to only show the data with dates that occur prior to and including the selected date.

Thank you for helping!!

Hi, @Anonymous ;
You could create a flag measure.
flag =
var _max=CALCULATE(MAX('data'[date]),ALL('data'))
var _year= IF(MAX('FilterYear_Table'[Disp Year])="Today’s Year",YEAR(_max), CONVERT(MAX('FilterYear_Table'[Disp Year]),INTEGER))
var _month= IF(MAX('FilterMonth_Table'[Disp Month])="Today’s Month",MONTH(_max),MONTH( MAX('FilterMonth_Table'[Disp Month]) & " 1"))
var _day= IF(MAX('FilterDay_Table'[Disp Day])="Today’s Day",DAY(_max),CONVERT(MAX('FilterDay_Table'[Disp Day]),INTEGER))
return IF(MAX([date])<=DATE(_year,_month,_day),1,0)
Then apply it into filter.
The final output is shown below:

Hi, @Anonymous ;
You could create another measure.
count = COUNTROWS( SUMMARIZE(FILTER('data',[flag]=1),[date],[name]))
The final output is shown below:

Hi,
Thank you for your help! I was wondering if how would you create a card that would display the total number of names displayed in the chart for the selected date?
When I tried duplicating the chart and coverting the data into a card, the card only seems to display the overall total number of data values instead of the number of data values displayed.
Thank you!
I tried it with the power bi file, but the total only displays the overall total of the entire data set. I attached a copy of the file.
Thank you for your help!

@Anonymous , You have create these in you table
Year Type = Switch( True(),
year([Date])= year(Today()),"This Year" ,
year([Date])= year(Today())-1,"Last Year" ,
Format([Date],"YYYY")
)
Month Type = Switch( True(),
Eomonth([Date],0)= Eomonth(Today(),0),"This Month" ,
month([Date]) & "" // or// format([Date],"mmm")
)
Month Type = Switch( True(),
[Date]= Today(),"This Day" ,
Day([Date]) & ""
)
Default Date Today/ This Month / This Year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfn05preQYA
Hi! Thank you for your help! I was wondering if there was a way for me to also display all the data that falls on the dates leading up to the selected date as well?
