Filter table based on user input
- 8 years ago
Add the date field from your calendar table to the page as a slicer and choose "after" drop-down option.
You can then remove the slider feature and condense the object to only show the date field the user would be entering into.

Thank you Drew. What calendar table are you referring? Do I need to make it? I have one list (Project Master) which has many columns including "End Date". Just want user to pick a random date (where do I put/store this date for the filter?) and then projects with a greater date than the one input will show.

It is generally best practice to add a calendar table that simply contains a unique value for each date that you would join to your Project Master table by the End Date (you can Google Calendar Table and find plug and play examples). That being said, if you are only using one table, then you should be able to add the End Date to the page as a slicer and follow the same steps. Let me know if this works for you.

Thanks Drew, Got the date table down. How can I make it so the Project tables shows any project that has an End Date after the date chosen? I want it to take the day entered, look at the other table and only display those that have an "End Date" after the date input in my new date table.

Sorry, my ignorance. I just made a relationship between Date and End Date and it works. Sorry, Brain fart.
