Here is my sample data.

 

DeviceContract Start DateMonths Since Started
A17-Dec-193
B21-Sep-1818
C15-Oct-195
D14-Jan-202
E16-Sep-196

 

IndexContract expirying
1with in 6 months
2with in 3 months
3with in 1 month
 

 

So Slicer should filter table as below.

1. Contract expirying "with in 6 months" => Shows Devices = A, C, D, E

2. Contract expirying "with in 3 months" => Shows Devices = A, D

3. Contract expirying "with in 1 month" => Shows Devices = C, E

    Hi,

    That is exactly what my solution does.  I have shared the file with you.

      Ashish_Mathur No, It is not working.

      If you select "within 1 month" no data is shown.

        Hi,

        In the "Months since started" column, there is no entry of 1.  Therefore when you select "Within 1 month" in the slicer, no row shows up.

    Hi ravitejaballa , 

    Yes, as Ashish_Mathur  mentioned , the"within 1 month" option should return blank(the date which within a month of today is 202/2/29-2020/3/31, no records within this range, it should return blank). Or you also could inform me your logic of  "within 1 month", then we will help you more correctly.

      To simplify further.

      Same slicer but data should filter as shown.

       

      ExpiryIn1Month =
      IF(mtagData[contractDateDiff.months] == 6, TRUE())

       

      ExpiryIn3Months =
      IF(AND(mtagData[contractDateDiff.months] >= 1, mtagData[contractDateDiff.months] <= 3), TRUE())

       

      ExpiryIn6Months =
      IF(AND(mtagData[contractDateDiff.months] >= 1, mtagData[contractDateDiff.months] <= 6), TRUE())
