Can't Restrict Slicer Date Range

[yasbos]

Hi. I have a slicer with a date field from a calendar. The calendar dates go back to Jan of 2019. However, for this particular page, I want the dates to start at Jan of 2022. I thought that applying a filter on the visual ristricting the dates would do the job. It didn't. Please, see below the filter, and see the slicer still showing ealier dates. Is this a bug, or am I doing it wrong? Thanks so much.

Guess what? 🙂 I deleted the filter and recreated it. It works now. I guess I should've done that first!

Hi,

this method should work, is the same date field being used in the slicer as the filter?

@DOLEARY85 Thanks. Yes 🙂 See the below image. I did actually suspect that at first.

that does seem rather strange, are you able to share your file at all?

Thanks, @vanessafvg. It is going to be hard to share the file because it is quite large. I'll see if I can strip it down to just this piece. In the mean time, as you can see below, the filter on the slicer is pretty clear.
