Filter visual using checkbox

Hi,

 

I have a large table and I am trying to figure out a way to create a checkbox slicer in powerbi that when selected it will filter a table to show what was added to the table after a fixed date.  So what I'm trying to accomplish is allowing the users to see what has been recently added to the table.  So I update the data in the table once a quarter and say the last update was in August, 2024.  If you select the checkbox, you will now only see in the table what was added after Aug 2024.  I know I could just use a slider, but then the user would have to input the date.  I just want a simple checkbox which would be labeled, show new items since last update, and it would just show based on the date I input.

@machucam Does this work for you? Adding a simple calculated column to return "Is Latest" for the MAX date, and using that in a slicer.

Thanks.  That was a good workaround.
