How to filter on blank AND date range

I have a report that shows the top 6 rows with blank dates as the heading.  Then the data starts with dates.  The user wants a date slider, but when I do that, the top 6 disappear because they dont have a date.  Is there any way to include the blank dates AND the slider dates in the filter?

Hello Jai

I guess I'm not understanding your solution.  Just to be clear, I ALWAYS want to show the rows with blank dates, and then only show those rows "with" dates based on the slider.  Is that what you understood?

Thank you

Hi,

This is doing what mine currently is.  If you change the date, the rows with the blank date stay.  What I need is for those to always show.

For example, in this case I would still need to see rows 1-7, with row 7 and 8 only being removed

Hi

 

Yes this is doing exacly what I need.  I see you have a new Date table with generated dates and the slicer is based on that date.  The table is based on your DataTable.  I'm not seeing the correlation between the slicer Date table and the table Data Table.

Nevermind.  I overlooked the New Measure you created.  This works as I needed

 

Thank you for your help

Hi @bdherh  The Date Slider Slicer does not display blank dates by default. As a workaround, you can create a bookmark specifically for blank dates and use the Visual filter in the right-side pane to refine your display accordingly. You can place your bookmark button like below

No.  The blanks should be filled with dates.
