Date Pick-List Question

I have an accounts receivable report that has an "as of" date picker. Every time a user  opens the report the most recent date is the last one chosen. Does anyone know of a way for the default date to be the most current date? For example, if a user openned the report on May 29th and selected this date from the drop-down, then closed the report, and reopened it a day later, the 29th is the date selected. Ideally, I would like it to be the 30th. I thought about creating a derived table with the most current date -- Today() -- and then adding it to the data model, but I'm not sure that's optimal.

 

Thanks.

If its a date slicer, you can make it a releative date slicer, so it will always open for the current date, or show yesterdays data as default.

Thanks! Duh, is my lingering thought. So simple you could slap me upside my head.
