I have some data which each row is a initiative with INITIALDATE and ENDDATE columns.
I also have a calendar table which I create a relationship with INITIALDATE at the moment.
However, I wanted to have a solution which in a YEAR slicer, if I select any year that is between the INITIALDATE and ENDDATE, the initiative still appears in the visual.
For example, Initiative 1 has:
INITIALDATE = 01/01/2020
ENDDATE = 31/12/2023
I wanted the initiative 1 to appear if I select any of the following years: 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023.

Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @RPAI2812
In this case you actually need to disconnect the link between the calendar table and your fact (data) table and then use measures to show and hide the initiatives as below. Put a visual filter on the table with "IniativeShow = 1"
InitativeShow =
VAR SelectedYear =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Calendar'[Year] )
RETURN
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( 'Table' ),
FILTER (
'Table',
SelectedYear >= YEAR ( 'Table'[Initial Date] )
&& SelectedYear <= YEAR ( 'Table'[End Date] )
)
)
(I have also attached the file for your reference)
Thank you for the reply, it solved my issue.
Now if you could give an extra help.. imagine I have a column with some savings from this initiative.
How to filter a SUM or AVERAGE measure with Initiativeshow = 1?
I tried to apply with calculate or filter, but could not manage 😞
