As we have so many Date related Visuals, Slicer and timeline. But the very simple Single Data picker is not available please do put this feature we need in our project.

I think single date picker feature is something missing for a long time in Power BI date slicer visual. It is something any BI project would need to have sooner or later.

Mandatory and very simple to implement (like between but with a single date) !

RE: Single Date Picker in power Bi desktop

The fact that this is not already included is honestly quite absurd

RE: Single Date Picker in power Bi desktop

This is absolutely needed. In Finance, users want to see figures for a given quarter, with YTD and PY comparison. The current slicer only defines a from-to-period, which is not suitable for such a scenario. The date picker visual must define one date. DAX functions such as ENDOFYEAR, PREVIOUSYEAR or SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR should work with the values defined in the date picker. The card visual must be able to show the date selected in the Date Picker. Also, the Date Picker should show a calendar allowing the user to choose a day, with TODAY() as default value, with arrows to show next/previous quarter or year.

Single date filter which could be used with any operator like greater than , less than is very much needed.

A single filter is crucial to pass 'as at date' parameters. Posting here because Gustavo's link is marked as 'Completed' so I don't know if it will get looked at.
