Relative Date/Time Filter on Power BI Visual

Hi,

 

I have a date/time column which is the timestamp when the devices checked in with the Intune.

I am trying to use the filter to display devices that haven't checked in for 24 hours.

 

But the Time/Date filter only give me the option to show devices checked in.

For example, when I select Filter Type = Relative time,

it give me option "Show items when the value is in the last 24 hours",

while I need it to be "Not in the last 24 hours".

 

Is there any smart and simple way to work around this?

 

Thanks!

Hi @NHTKID ,

Thanks for @Waldo35 's solution, one more thing, we should use NOW function instead of TODAY which will return the time 00:00:00.

If you want to use the relative time, here's the solution.

Sample:

1.Create a new table. Don't make relationship between the two tables.

Table 2 = VALUES('Table'[Item])

2.Create a measure.

Check =
IF ( MAX ( 'Table 2'[Item] ) IN VALUES ( 'Table'[Item] ), 1, 0 )

Put Item column from the new table in a visual, and put the measure in the visual filter then set its value to 0. After apply the relative slicer, get the correct result.
