    Hi , DataFab2023 

    Thanks for your quick response！I may have a mistake in my dax code , you can try to use this dax:

    Measure = var _slicer =MAX('Dim_Date2'[Date Filter])
var _start = MINX( FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Sheet1'),'Sheet1'[Date]=_slicer) , [Start])
var _date = MAX('Sheet1'[Date])
return
IF(_date>=_start && _date<= _slicer,1,0)

     

    Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!

var _start = MINX( FILTER('Sheet1','Sheet1'[Date]=_slicer) , [Start])
var _date = MAX('Sheet1'[Date])
return
IF(_date>=_start && _date<= _slicer,1,0)

 

Then we can put this measure on the "Filter on this visual"  for this visual:

    Hi there,

     

    thanks for taking the time for this one.


    The measure almost worked, the problem is that when I select 15/04/2023 for example the start period (from the start column) is 01/04/2023 there it should show data only from 01/04/2023 and not 15/01/2023
