Hi , @Everton_Ramone 

According to your description , you want to default select the last two months in your date table?

Here are the steps you can refer to :

(1)We can click "Get more visual" to add the "Preselected Slicer":

(2)We need to create a table like this:

(3)Then we can create a measure :

Measure = var _slicer_date = SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date])
var _max_date = MAXX(ALL('Date') , [Date])
var _last_2_month = EOMONTH( _max_date , -2)+1
var _t =SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER( ALL('Date') , 'Date'[Date]>= _last_2_month && 'Date'[Date]<=_max_date),"Date",[Date])
return
IF(_slicer_date in _t ,TRUE(),FALSE() )

(4)Then we put thses fields on the visual and we can meet your need:

If this method does not meet your needs, you can provide us with your special sample data and the desired output sample data in the form of tables, so that we can better help you solve the problem.

Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!
