Creating a table using a measure

I want to create a table using a measure i created. The measure gives the number of employees per month and now I want to get it in a table. 

This is how i calculated the measure: 

 

TM_Count = VAR selectedDate = MAX('Dates'[Date])

RETURN

SUMX('info TeamMembers',
VAR employeeStartDate = 'info TeamMembers'[HireDate]
VAR employeeEndDate = 'info TeamMembers'[TermDate]
RETURN IF(employeeStartDate<= selectedDate && OR(employeeEndDate>=selectedDate, employeeEndDate=BLANK() ),1,0))
 
Is it possible to do this?
Any help will be appreciated.

Hi, @kb19270 

You can't filter the data value in a calculated table but you can apply a filter to a table visual filter pane.

Please add another measure:

visaul filter = 
VAR selectedDate = MAX('Dates'[Date])
VAR employeeStartDate = MAX('info TeamMembers'[HireDate])
VAR employeeEndDate = MAX('info TeamMembers'[TermDate])
RETURN IF(employeeStartDate<= selectedDate && OR(employeeEndDate>=selectedDate, employeeEndDate=BLANK() ),1,0)

Then apply it to table visual filter pane.

@kb19270 , A calculated table can not use slicer values. Means using a measure will not be useful
