    Hi All,

    I found the solution
    1. First open a new table

    and insert that Dax code:

    Date Buttons =
    VAR Yesterday =ADDCOLUMNS(
            CALCULATETABLE(
                'Dim_Date',
                FILTER(Dim_Date, Dim_Date[Date] = TODAY() - 1)
            ),
            "Last X Days", " "
        )

    VAR Last30Days =ADDCOLUMNS(
            CALCULATETABLE(
                'Dim_Date',
                DATESBETWEEN(
                    Dim_Date[Date],
                    TODAY() - 30,  // Adjust the start date to exclude today
                    TODAY() - 1   // Adjust the end date to include yesterday
                )
            ),
            "Last X Days", "  "
        )

    VAR Last90Days =ADDCOLUMNS(
            CALCULATETABLE(
                'Dim_Date',
                DATESBETWEEN(
                    Dim_Date[Date],
                    TODAY() - 90,  // Adjust the start date to exclude today
                    TODAY() - 1   // Adjust the end date to include yesterday
                )
            ),
            "Last X Days", "   "
        )
        VAR Last1737Days =
        ADDCOLUMNS(
            CALCULATETABLE(
                'Dim_Date',
                DATESBETWEEN(
                    Dim_Date[Date],
                    TODAY() - 1737,  // Adjust the start date to exclude today
                    TODAY() - 1   // Adjust the end date to include yesterday
                )
            ),
            "Last X Days", "    "
        )

    RETURN UNION(Yesterday, Last30Days, Last90Days,Last1737Days)

    This table will add a new dim date that collects all the buttons in one bucket
    For example yesterday you got 3 rows 
    yesterday
    Last 30 Days 
    Ans Last 90 days

    2. Step two connect to your dim date
    many to one and connection both side

    Good luck!

Hello netanel ,

 

so this is calculated wrong from the db, because when I tried filtering the table from the data view to see the rows related to last 30 days it showed 29 as you can see in the screenshot.

 

And when i filtered it to show the last 90 days it only filtered 60 rows

 

 

so you should check the calculation of this column from the database calculation because power bi is reflecting it as it was calculated.

But that's the whole idea, think about it
In SQL I bring one column
Yesterday is one  line
Last 30 Days can't register on yesterday
The last 90 Days  cannot be registered on 30 days and yesterday

Now in Power BI, I am trying to calculate a measure
That 30 days back will bring me both yesterday and the 30 days

Beyond that, you have a separate column for each date as well
Last 30 Days whit 30 rows
Last 90 Days whit 90 rows

    Hello netanel ,

     

    So i adjusted the last 30 days measure to the following:

     

    Last 30 Days =
    VAR Last30Days = MAX('Dim_Date'[ISODateName]) -30

    RETURN
    SWITCH(TRUE(),
    'Dim_Date'[ISODateName] > Last30Days,"Last 30 days")
     

     

     

    And the last 90 days to the following

     

    Last 90 Days =
    VAR Last90Days = MAX('Dim_Date'[ISODateName]) -90

    RETURN
    SWITCH(TRUE(),
    'Dim_Date'[ISODateName] > Last90Days,"Last 90 days")

      That doesn't answer my question...
      I need one measure to insert in the slicer

      And get 30 days for "Last 30 Days"
      And 90 Days for "Last 90 Days"

      and also Yesterday
