 Hi @Anonymous ,

According to my understanding, you want to  dynamically display the data for the last four months based on the slicer, right?

You could use the following formula:

//create a table for slicer

forSlicer =
ALLSELECTED ( 'Dynamic'[Date] )

last4 =
VAR selected =
    MAX ( forSlicer[Date] )
VAR minDate = selected - 4 * 30
RETURN
    IF (
        SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Dynamic'[Date] ) <= selected
            && SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Dynamic'[Date] ) >= minDate,
        1,
        0
    )

My visualization looks like this:

 

Is the result what you want? If not, please upload some data samples and expected output.

Please do mask sensitive data before uploading.

Best Regards,

@Anonymous I would recommend using relative date filter function, like show last 4 months etc.

Hi @parry2k ,

I've now edited my post.. Sorry

@Anonymous my reply is the same, use relative date filter, much easier to work with otherwise you have to create disconnected table for slicer and then work with measures, etc, can be achieved but seems overkill when relative date filter can achieve the same goal.

My output table is a MATRIX and I need to sort it by descending order, I'm not sure how I can do this by relative filtering

[parry2k]

@Anonymous not sure what you mean? You will have a date in the matrix column and use a relative date filter and it will work. Have you even tested it? Why not you spend some time test it before you come back with further questions.

After I use my slicer and use relative data for last 4 months, it will only show me last 4 months in the drop down. I want all dated to be displayed in the drop down, and based onw hat user selects the output matrix will display only last 4 months
