single timeline slicer for different calculated dimension

I have different date columns for different business process flow. For example you have next flow : "registration date" >> "application screening date" >> "purchased date".

 

The question how to use 1 timeline slicer for showing correct result for different date column.

So let assume that i select month january in timeline, and then i want see next number:

1) How many customers had registered?

2) How many customer had screened in january

3) How many customers had purchases?

 

But if i use date of "registration time" for time slicer, then i can't see correctly number for 2nd and 3d indicators. Because maybe some clients had registration in december but "screening" at january.

Is it possible to solve this problem with standard BI tools? Please give me some hints...

i didn't find any button to upload the file so i simply make a link with example. Is it what you ask?? Actually i didn't change language inside flowchart, but i think for understanding it is not necessary. So the problem is next - if i use "applied time" all result calculated based on this time but i want have 1 universal timeline for different time dimensions inside flowchart. And each step in flowchart should have his own time dimension.
