Filter Date Column by TODAY-7

Hello everyone!

I have a date column that I would like to filter on all dates 7 Days before today.

Is there any chance to determine that with Power Query?

Hi  @joshua1990 , 

You could try below M code 

let
    Source = List.Dates(#date(2020,4,12), 30,#duration(1,0,0,0)),
    #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Converted to Table", "Custom", each if [Column1]<=DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow())-#duration(7,0,0,0) then 1 else 0),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Added Custom", each ([Custom] = 1))
in
    #"Filtered Rows"

Hi @joshua1990 

 

You can do it in the Model using Slicer or Filter 
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/visuals/desktop-slicer-filter-date-range

Or you can use Relative Date Dimension
