Sorry about that...

I want to be able to choose a date in my visual to filter the report. For each products I have a date of entry in the inventory and a date of release. By choosing a date in the visual, I want to see the product that were still in the inventory at this moment. 

EX: if I choose the 1st of august in my visual, I need to see the products with the InDate before 1st of august AND the OutDate after 1st of august.

Hope its clearer!

Thanks

Hi Anonymous,

 

Please first create a calendar table which is unrelated with above actual data table. Add date field from this calendar table into slicer.

DimDate =
CALENDAR ( MIN ( ActualTable[InDate] ), MAX ( ActualTable[OutDate] ) )

 

Create below measure:

SelectedDateValue =
SELECTEDVALUE ( DimDate[Date] )

Measure1 =
IF (
    SELECTEDVALUE ( ActualTable[InDate] ) <= [SelectedDateValue]
        && SELECTEDVALUE ( ActualTable[OutDate] ) >= [SelectedDateValue],
    1,
    0
)

 

I think you would use a Table visual to display data from actual table. Then, click this table visual, add [Measure1] to visual level filter, and set its value to 1.
