Filtering by values that aren't on my DB just yet

Hello! Through a Direct Query connection, I am trying to perform a DAX formula to filter by values that I know are not present in my DB just yet, but will be in the future; however, upon entering them into the formula and DQ not finding them, the visual doesn't work. Is there a way to get around this so I can set this filter?

Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry, I just realized the problem wasn't the DAX formula, but a date filter I had on which returned null values. Thank you for taking the time to help out nonetheless!
