Disable all visuals after a certain date

[bobbob123]

Hi,

I have a report that has multiple pages and visuals. I want to disable all the visuals once it goes past a certain date eg 31/12/2024.
I want this always to work once the report has been published to the service.

So far my approach has been a simple IF measure, but this fails for 2 reasons (unable to be used across all pages and once published, it doesn't calculate on the service).

Is there any workaround for this problem?

Hi @bobbob123 

As long as you want to maintain the interactivity of your reports, the only way to achieve this is through the conditions of each metric and dimension in each visualization there are no other tricks.

The second option is to simply "freeze" the report at the last date you want to display by using a filter at the "All pages" level.

Hi @bobbob123 

This is a matter of your data model. If you want to perform date-level metric manipulations, the metric must have some connection to a calendar table, either through tables or through DAX.

Once there is a connection, you can filter the report as shown in the image:

@Ritaf1983  How do i go about freezing my report at the last date using the all pages filter? My measure is not accepted at that filter.

My data model/ all visuals does not have a date metric/column hence why I'm struggling to get to disable all visuals.

You can add a date column with the Today() formula and then you will get the option to filter based on this column...
