My date slicer/filter is showing very old values - fiscal years from 1970s, which is pointless and goes until FY2045 (again too far).
I want this to be according to the data available in my fact tables (which is probably currently for 2023, 2024, 2025). How can I shorten this list?
Also, once the user select this filter, eg. FY2024, I have another filter option for the user to select the quarter of the year (if they want to use that and narrow down the results further) - Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4. I want this "quarter" filter to be dependent on the FY filter above so that the data shows correctly.
Currently when I click on the Q1 box, the data changes but I am not sure why is it changing as I did not select any year in the FY filter at all, so I assume it is probably selecting the data for all years' Q1 combined?

Hi,
Share the download link of the PBI file.
Try creating the measure below where 'Date' is your date table:
Date Slicer Filter =
VAR vStartDate =
CALCULATE ( MIN ( FactTable[Date] ), ALL () )
VAR vEndDate =
CALCULATE ( MAX ( FactTable[Date] ), ALL () )
VAR vResult =
SUMX (
FILTER ( 'Date', 'Date'[Date] >= vStartDate && 'Date'[Date] <= vEndDate ),
1
)
RETURN
vResult
Add this measure as a filter to your date slicer:
