Creating a filter for the last two weeks of data

I have a client request about displaying a table with the last two weeks (today included) as the default. I have tried messing around with slicers but never managed to have them both work together as one would nee dot be offsetting the other. While searching for options I stumbled upon a possible way around it, creating a custom table with two rows, one being a last two weeks and the other all. 

 

Then a measure was used to calculate such value and turn it into a filter. However, on that formula I'm having issues replacing the generic table/column names. If anyone could point me out in the right direction or have another solution, I'd be thankful. 

Below is the measure formula:

Measure = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Table (3)'[default value])="!previous 45 days",CALCULATE(SUM('Main table'[Value]),FILTER('Calendar',[Date]<=TODAY()&&[Date]>=TODAY()-44)),SUM('Main table'[Value]))

Hi @AmazingRandom ,

 

You can use a disconnected dates table and a measure to filter  just the last two weeks of dates. This approach if the date column is in a table or used as row header in a matrix is it behaves unexpectedly when used as column header when other dimension columns are added. The other approach is to create a modified table that has a date column and another dates column containing the last two weeks of date referencing the currrent row in the original date column something like below:

It is not working for me, I set up the tables but when I apply the filter to my table it returns nothing
