    Hi Anonymous 

     

    First of all, measure can't be put into the slicer.You can create a date table using the following formula, and then create a relationship between the date table and the invoice_date column.

    FullDateKey = CALENDAR(DATE(2024,1,1),DATE(2024,12,31))

     

    Based on your needs, I have created the following table.

     

    You can calculate total sales using the following Dax:

    Measure = SUMX(FILTER('Table','Table'[invoice_date]<>BLANK()&&'Table'[order_date]<>BLANK()),'Table'[sales_price])

     

    Result:
