Steps to Set a Relative Date Slicer:

1. Add a Slicer Visual:

From the Visualizations pane, add a Slicer to your report.

 

2. Drag a Date Field:

Drag a date field (like OrderDate, TransactionDate, etc.) into the slicer.

 

3. Change to Relative Mode:

Click the drop-down arrow on the slicer (top-right corner).

Choose Relative from the slicer options.

 

4. Set the Relative Period:

You can now specify:

Time Unit: Days, Weeks, Months, or Years.

Value: e.g., last 3 months, last 7 days, etc.

Direction: In the last / Next / This.

Follow the below article:
