Hi @CrisNep 

 

You just need to create a new calculated column to extract the year like this:

 

Year = YEAR(DateTable[Date])

 

After creating this column, you can use it in a slicer to display years.

Please see, if this is what you want.

Hi @CrisNep 

If you have the date hierachy, you can put the year field of the date hierachy to the slicer directly, you can refer to the following picture.
