Is it possible to use slicer selected value as flag column?

Context:
I have one tables on PowerBI
Activity:

DateStoreSalesGross Margin
01/01/2021Branch 1100002000
01/02/2021Branch 1200004000
01/03/2021Branch 1150003000
01/04/2021Branch 1210004100
01/05/2021Branch 1300006000


I have a Date slicer having the list of dates on this table.
I need to add a column indicating if the date is before or on, from the value selected on the slicer,
For example if 01/03/2021 is selected on the slicer I want this flag column:
This column needs to be dynamic, is this possible?

Hi @emmanuelvallejo ,

 

Assuming its semantics, and that you don't mind that its a measure, yes, its possible. Please see below:

No. You can only modify measures based on filter selections. calculated columns are not impacted by filters.
