Year and Month display by default in slicer

Hi,

How to display current year and month to be selected in the slicer (i.e. would automatically open on the current month at all times).

@Umadhandapani , There is only work around for that

 

Year Type = Switch( True(),
year([Date])= year(Today()),"This Year" ,
year([Date])= year(Today())-1,"Last Year" ,
Format([Date],"YYYY")
)

 

Month Type = Switch( True(),
month([Date])= month(Today()),"This Month" ,
month([Date]) & ""
)

 

 

or

 

Month Type = Switch( True(),
Date([Date]) = eomonth(Today(),-1),"Last Month" ,
Date([Date])= eomonth(Today(),0),"This Month" ,
[Month]
)

 

 

Default Date Today/ This Month / This Year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfn05preQYA

 

You need save value like this year, this month
