Hi, @Anonymous 

If you have a seperate calendar table ,you can create a measure and apply it to table filter pane to filter data.

visual filter = 
VAR _selecteddate =
    MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
RETURN
    IF (
        ISFILTERED ( 'Calendar'[Date] ),
        IF (
            _selecteddate >= MAX ( 'Table'[Planned Start] )
                && _selecteddate <= MAX ( 'Table'[Planned Finish] ),
            1,
            0
        ),
        1
    )

if date filter is a list..its filtering the data. But when the date filter is changed to hierarchy like QTR , month..its not filtering all datas

Hi @Anonymous 

That is a cross join and you will have all rows from second table for each row in the first table and Vice-versa.

The join needs to be on the date column.

I have added a column tag=1 in date table and as well in Project data table. Set relationship as Many - Many

Date(tag)=Projectdata(Tag)
