Hi All

I need a slice to choose Revenue Or Profit and second slicer to choose period: Month, Year, From Inception date

@xariet , if you want date join to be an option, you can have inactive join with a date table and can activate them using userelationship or use crossfilter non to break the join

For selection, you can use field parameters, if you want to keep 4 measures.

If not you have to create measures using the old measure technique, but you need to check two values (in my example I check only one value)
