User input date filter

Hi Everyone! 

 

I am hoping to get some help with a visual I'm trying to make.  The page will have a table which tells the user what tasks they have to do and by when, based on the date they start. 

I want to enable the user to be able to input the date they start into the dash through a slicer and the data in the table changes accordingly, I know I can add a formula to make the date feild dynamic i.e dateadd([parameterName],-2,"days, but I wondered if it's possible to have the user change the date from the front end?

 

Below is an example where they can change the start date box and the following changes too.

Yes this is similar to what I've been doing. Only thing is that the [Date] feild is not dynamic, there will have to be data for this, i.e I will have to put the date from today until 10 years time in order for the dynamic feild to work wont I?

My challenge is the due date must be dynamic and the start date is not in the data, it would almost be perhaps an input parameter?

@Anonymous , Create an independent date table, and use that in slicer

 

then you can have due date like

 

due date +3 days =

maxx(allselected('Date'), 'Date'[Date]) +3
