How would I create a dashboard where i can accept user inputs and generate data based on that?

What I want to create is a dashboard that accepts input values like Period in years, Acquisition cost, Operation cost, Inflation,  discount rate, etc. of a particular asset to generate a table showing the total LLC. Something like thisdashboard_user_input.png

I have tried doing this with what-if parameters but that doesn't work properly. The top panel is just showcasing the values for a selected asset.

This is the dataset for the assets -

 I've also created a dates dimension table to connect to this data.


What could be a good solution to this?

@Anonymous , You have use whatif parameter or you can create your own table using generateseries and use that

 

Table= generateseries(1,10000,1)

 

You can create range of date using calendar

I have already tried using what-if parameters. The result is what you see above. But the issue is that  I'm unable to use generateseries to generate huge values ie. Billions. This just crashes the slicer visual.
