Dynamic measure based on slicer

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone,

I have 2 counts, each of them is coming from a single table, but they use different dates:

# of Responses - based on response date column
# of Invitations - based on creation date column

I'm trying to create measure for # of Invitations which will show the count based on creation date even if slicer is based on response date. In example, slicer is based on response date, so if i select 2020 records it should filter # of invitations to only those where creation date was in 2020. Is it even possible?

Thanks in advance,
Ksusser

@Anonymous , you need to create a date table, join both dates with it. One join will be inactive, which you can activate in measure using userelationship

Then you can create a measure slicer to switch these two

Oh my god, you can active/deactivate relations from measure level. Thank you, it solves everything!
