My Power BI report feeds off of one table which has, among other fields:
TimeStamp
Reading
I use a line chart to plot Reading values over time -- so TimeStamp is on the x axis.
Since there's a lot of history, users are requesting some shortcut options:
(_) Last 7 days
(_) Last 30 days
(_) Last 90 days
(_) All time
Ideally these option would show up in a single-select slicer. When selected, the data set and visual would filter down to the date range selected.
I was able to easily implement one such option by adding this measure to my table:
Last7Days =
VAR _max = MAX(Table1[TimeStamp])
RETURN IF((Table1[TimeStamp] > _max - 7) && Table1[TimeStamp] <= _max, "Last 7 Days")
I can put that in a slicer by itself and when the user clicks the checkbox, the visual filters to show just the last 7 days.
How can I implement more such options and make them mutually exclusive?
@bvy You can create a parameter table that has two columns:
* the text labels (ie "Last 7 days")
* the days to filter (ie Today -7)
Then follow a similar method to this: https://excelwithallison.blogspot.com/2021/08/categorical-date-slicer-in-power-bi.html
