In this video, I show how to build a custom period slicer in Power BI to make your reports more dynamic and flexible.
Instead of relying on multiple DAX measures for things like last quarter, last 12 months, or YTD, I walk through a smarter approach that keeps your model clean and scalable.
We start with the problem, see why the usual method gets messy, and then move to Calculation Groups where everything becomes reusable and efficient. You will learn how to create custom time periods and apply them across any measure without rewriting DAX.
If you want simpler models and more powerful reports, this is definitely worth trying!
