Filter multiple date fields with 1 slicer

I have 4 visuals showing projects in different statuses. I want to show the differet project types in a specified date range by using one slicer the user can adjust. One of the problems I am having is creating a DAX measure that makes it so one slicer can control 3 different date fields, I only want the user to have to put in their date range once.

 

The 4 visuals-

New Projects: Any project where the 'Added Date' field is between the user specified date range.

Active: Any project where the 'Status Date' field is between the user specified date range and the Finished Date field is null.

Pending Projects: Any project where the 'Status Date' field is NOT between the user specified date range and the Finished Date field is null.

Finished Projects: Any project where the 'Finished Date' field is between the user specified date range.

 

I would appreciate any help on how to accomplish this!

 

Thank you!

Hi  @S_Berg ,

 

Sorry, as far as I know, it may not be possible to use only one measure to filter 4 Visual different date fields, which will cause conflicts in the conditions, you can create 4 measures and place them in different Visual settings is=1.

Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Create measure.

New Projects =
var _mindate=MINX(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date])
var _maxdate=MAXX(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date])
return
IF(
    MAX('Table'[Added])>=_mindate&&MAX('Table'[Added])<=_maxdate,1,0)
ACTIVE =
var _mindate=MINX(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date])
var _maxdate=MAXX(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date])
return
IF(
    MAX('Table'[Status])>=_mindate&&MAX('Table'[Added])<=_maxdate&&MAX('Table'[Finished])=BLANK(),1,0)
Pending Projects =
var _mindate=MINX(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date])
var _maxdate=MAXX(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date])
return
IF(
    MAX('Table'[Status])<_mindate|| MAX('Table'[Added])>_maxdate&&MAX('Table'[Finished])=BLANK(),1,0)
New Projects =
var _mindate=MINX(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date])
var _maxdate=MAXX(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date])
return
IF(
    MAX('Table'[Added])>=_mindate&&MAX('Table'[Added])<=_maxdate,1,0)

2. Place the four Measures in different Visual Filters and set is=1.

@S_Berg You need a Complex Selector. Re: The Complex Selector - Microsoft Fabric Community

 

Sample data and expected output would help to be more specific.
