How can I get three separate counts with one date slicer?

We have clients with three relevent dates (application, start, and stop). I've made a seperate date table so now the report has three matrices  (one for each count). How can I get a distinct count of clients if their date fell in the larger date range? i.e. I want a disinct count of clients who applied in the date range, a seperate distinct ount of clients who started in the range, and then a distinct count of clients who ended in the range. 

 

In a formula it would be IF([app date] >= [period start] & [app date] <= [period end], 1, 0) and so on but that requires me to make two seperate date columns that I change for the viewers. I need three counts, using different dates, filtered by one slicer my viewers change. If they occured in the timeframe it is  a 1 otherwise a 0.

 

I created some eample data below

Hi @BW40 ,

Please try to create a date table for slicer visual:

Table 2 = CALENDAR(dt"2023-01-01",dt"2023-12-01")

Create a measure with below dax formula:

Measure =
VAR _min =
    MIN ( 'Table 2'[Date] )
VAR _max =
    MAX ( 'Table 2'[Date] )
VAR tmp =
    CALENDAR ( _min, _max )
VAR tmp1 =
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), [App date] IN tmp )
VAR tmp2 =
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), [Start Date] IN tmp )
VAR tmp3 =
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), [stop date] IN tmp )
VAR _a =
    CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[clients] ), tmp1 )
VAR _b =
    CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[clients] ), tmp2 )
VAR _c =
    CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[clients] ), tmp3 )
RETURN
    "Count 1:" & _a & "
" & "Count 2:" & _b & "
" & "Count 3:" & _c

 

Add a slicer visual and card visual:

Took a little adjusting but that appears to have worked. I needed to break it down by further who worked with the clients and the employees' supervisors so I dropped the "ALL" part of the DAX so get the specific counts rather than only the totals.
