Dynamic date time slicer
Hi everyone,
I have 2 tables. The first table shows start time and end time of each lot number. Another table shows information in that time periods.
I want to create a slicer of lot number so that when I select lot number, I can see information in that time periods. I can't figure out how to do that.
Does anyone know how to do this please?

Hi, Dieu
ryan_mayu's solution is perfect.
And I would like to share some additional solutions below.
According to your description, you want to create a slicer of lot number so that when you select lot number, you can see information in that time periods?
If I understand you correctly, then you can refer to my solution.
I have extended the dataset based on some of the data you provided:
Then you can New table:
CombinedTable = VAR LotTable = 'Table1' VAR InfoTable = 'Table2' RETURN SELECTCOLUMNS ( FILTER ( CROSSJOIN ( LotTable, InfoTable ), Table2[Sample time] >= Table1[Intake Time Start] && Table2[Sample time] <= Table1[Intake Time End] ), "Lot number", Table1[Lot Number], "Intake Time Start", Table1[Intake Time Start], "Intake Time End", Table1[Intake Time End], "Sample time", Table2[Sample Time], "Information", Table2[Information] )Finally add a Slicer and drag Lot Number into the field to filter it:
Here is the result:
I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.

you can create a measure
Measure =VAR _start=max('Table'[Intake time start])VAR _end=max('Table'[Intake time end])return if (max('Table (2)'[Sample time])>=_start && max('Table (2)'[Sample time])<=_end,1,0)and add that measure to visual filter and set to 1pls see the attachment below
