How to get current filter selected date in calculated column

[farhadidrees]

Hi All,

I have two tables,

1-DimDate

2-Services

There is no relationship between them because for DimDate i am using date in Slicer to return only rows of Services which exist from and To dates, and it is working fine.

The issue is in Services table i want to create one calculate column in which i want to return current selected date of slicer so that i can use it for further calculation.

I am using below Dax but it is returning Blank.

var selectedperiod = MONTH(SELECTEDVALUE(DimDate[Date]))

return selectedperiod

any clue for this?

Hey @farhadidrees,

A slicer selection does not affect calculated columns. A slicer selection only affects the visuals on your pages. If you want to write a certain calculation based on a slicer selection, you will have to process this in a measure, which you can then place in a visual.
