default slicer selection should be latest date when we open the report

default slicer selection should be max(date) when we open the report. below dax is working but the calculated column is text like "Latest Date" but i need max(date). Need urgent help on this requirement.

 

working fine: _Date_slicer =
IF('Date'[Date] = MAX('Date'[Date]), "Latest Date", FORMAT('Date'[Date], "MM-DD-YYYY"))

@Anonymous , the second one is working, it is giving the 1-April Date. But you can not default

The one gives a fixed text value which you can save in the slicer

 

Default Date Today/ This Month / This Year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfn05preQYA

Hi Amit,

 

in that video, he is creating this year, this month, today or yesterday, but i use these calculated column into another dax measure then it will not filter the data and it wont compare the data with text and integer. because of this reason

 

i required default latest date should be selected in slicer when i open the report. this is the requirement
