Visual filters on the same table

Trying to do a filter between to visual tables that contains data from the same table.

 

So, my data table is like following

RowID;CustomerID;EmployeeID;StartDate;EndDate;AwesomeValue;

 

Now, in my report I have a table where the user selectes a row and a new table where I would like to show rows where StartDate is before the StartDate of the row the user selected.

 

Data example

1;22;331;08/07/2017 10:17AM;08/07/2017 02:14PM;42;

2;22;333;08/08/2017 09:19AM;08/08/2017 03:17PM;17;

3;99;128;08/07/2017 09:09AM;08/07/2917 09:19:PM;9;

 

If I in visual table A would select row 2 then row 1 would be visible in table B. Currently what I could get at the moment is that if I select row 2 in table A then that row is visible in table B. I'm leaning towards creating a new data table with the same data but I can't figure out how it would help really. In the long run, both StartDate and EndDate would be filtered to see what entries overlap with the selected entry.

Hi there Sounds like you need two disconnected tables and a measure that you can use as a filter for the visual that is using Table B. The measure would return a 1 or 0 based on the comparison between the two start dates and can be used in the visual filter. Does that make sense? I can knock something up for you if you like. Phil

If you could mock something that would be super helpful. Thanks for the reply btw.
