in power bi can i put custom slicer in reports so that while user changes the set of dates it should go and actually hit the database in the source side and then filter the date based upon set of dates selected.@
@rajendraongole1 actually in the source side we dont have any date tables created there, how it will be referenced??/..
Hi @Abhishek19 Custom date slicers in Power BI that query the source database directly (using DirectQuery mode)
Set Up Your Data Source in DirectQuery Mode
example: create a date table as follows and establish a relationship with your existing source in model view
DateTable =
ADDCOLUMNS (
CALENDAR (DATE(2020, 1, 1), DATE(2025, 12, 31)),
"Year", YEAR([Date]),
"Month", FORMAT([Date], "MMMM"),
"Month Number", MONTH([Date]),
"Quarter", "Q" & QUARTER([Date]),
"Weekday", FORMAT([Date], "dddd")
)
Check if the above solution for with slicer functionality works.
