    Hi Anonymous 

    We can achieve your goal by build a Calendar Table.

    Calendar = CALENDARAUTO()

    Build a relationship between Date in Table and Date in Calendar Table.

    Then use this table to build a Slicer.

    When you want to see the data between the next 6 month and the next 12 month, you can select the day between 2021/2/28 and 2021/8/31.
