How to display quarterly data in Power BI - powerbi

I have a Power BI report with a Date (slicer) visual like that.
In a Data Model there is a tabel 'Date' that corresponds to this visual.
At the moment there are only Day, Week, Month and Year dimensions in date selection options. But I would like to see that there is a Quater option too. If I select all date options in 'Date' table then the Power BI doesn't add a Quater option to the previous list but constructs a new visual with different styling (the weekday and month names are in estonian).
The Quarter field in 'Date' table is created like this:
Quarter = Quarter('Date'[Date])
So, my question is why Power BI doesn't add automatically a quarter option to the dropdown menu and are there any solutions for that problem?

Try detectimg column as a date in BI Editor or you may create duplicate column of date to see quarter options.
You can acheive this my selection "Filter" Visualization and drag drop the qtr, month etc in field section.

Filtering by Power BI measure not working unless the date column is added to the table

In my Power BI model, I have written a measure to filter the data by the latest date in the model:
LatestDateIndicator = IF(CALCULATE(MAX('Table1'[WeekOf]),REMOVEFILTERS('Table1'))=MAX('wf WeeklyData'[Table1]),1,0)
In the visual filters, I select "greater than 0" to select rows only with the latest date in a date column called WeekOf. It does not work unless I add the column WeekOf to the table.
How can I make it work without adding the column WeekOf to the visual table?

Display year,quarter,month and day Charts based on the selected Date

There are four line charts for Year,Quarter,Month,Day in my power bi report. the requirement is to pick a date from the date picker and based on the selected date I need to display graphs accordingly(selected date and 3 values back). E.g. if user select 1.1.2018 from date picker, I need to display graphs with year,quarter,month,day belong to 1.1.2018 and 3 more values(years,quarters,months,days) back.
I add visual level filters for each line chart and filter top 4 values.but it's work for year chart only. any ideas?

Hey Dasaru try to create separate columns for year, quarter, month & date and use that as Axis in each chart
FYYear = Sheet1[Period].[Year]
FYQuarter = Sheet1[Period].[Year]&" "&Sheet1[Period].[Quarter]
Apply the same solution for Month and Date.

Date Column in Power BI spiting into 4 columns

I'm using Power BI, pulling data from a SQL server, but for a column containing date, it keeps splitting into 4 other columns when I try and show it in a table:
Year | Quarter | Month | Day
Has anyone had this issue before?
Note: Under modeling, when selecting that field I did try placing Data Type as Date. No change.
This is because Power BI made a date hierarchy from this field. If you do not want this, right click it in the designer and uncheck Date hierarchy from the menu:

Showing only Month and Year using the Data Segmentation visualization

I'm using the Data Segmentation visualization in Power Bi to filter the page using a Date column, but it shows the whole date (Day, Month, Year) and I need to show only Month and Year, is there a way to filter out the day?
You can create a new column in PowerBI desktop and use it.
Click on New Column in Home ribbon under Calculations section and enter like
MonthYear = Query1[CreatedDate].[Month] & "-" & Query1[CreatedDate].[Year]
Where CreatedDate is your current date field. Then you can use MonthYear column to filter.
When adding the date into the Viz, right click on the field and you show be able to deselect the date items you do not want.
