using selected value to return a list of customers between dates

Hi All

 

I am trying to show a rolling 12months of customers in a Matrix visual where the enddate is set by slicer and the startdate is always 12months before 

 

this is what i have 

NewBizCustomers =

VAR SelectedDate = LASTDATE(ALLSELECTED('Calendar'[Date]))

VAR SelectedYear = YEAR(SelectedDate)

VAR SelectedYearminus1 = YEAR(SelectedDate)-1

VAR SelectedMonth = MONTH(SelectedDate)

VAR SelectedDay = DAY(SelectedDate)

VAR CurrentYear = YEAR(TODAY())

 

VAR StartDate =

  DATE(SelectedYearminus1,SelectedMonth,SelectedDay)

VAR EndDate =

        DATE(SelectedYear , SelectedMonth, SelectedDay)

Var Result =

FILTER(

    VALUES('List of ACTs'[CustomerName]),DATESBETWEEN('List of ACTs'[Customer Startdate], StartDate,EndDate)

)

RETURN

Result

 

however, this doesn’t filter the customer name.

 

I have looked through Forums but not having much luck - any help is very much appreciated.

 

EDIT:
here is screenshot of the data

i want it so that the startdate is always 12months behind the slicer 

eg the able nz would not be on this list unless the date was 7/1/22

Found a way to do it by creating the following measure 

CustomerInRolling12Months =
VAR SelectedDate = LASTDATE(ALLSELECTED('Calendar'[Date]))
VAR StartDate = EDATE(SelectedDate, -12) + 1
VAR EndDate = SelectedDate

RETURN
IF(
MIN('List of ACTs'[Customer Startdate]) >= StartDate &&
MIN('List of ACTs'[Customer Startdate]) <= EndDate,
1,
0
)

 

 

Then adding this to the visual filters and settings it to only show 1 as the result 

 

Cheers all

hi @Thomasshepherd2 ,

 

it seems you are writing a calculated table, which is not supposed to respond to visual behaviors (like slicer).

Hi @Thomasshepherd2 

Please provide a workable sample data and your expected result from that. It is hard to figure out what you want to achieve from the description alone.
