I have searched throughout the net but still cannot figured out. I have a SharePoint document library where i have start date and end date. I would like to know how to tell SharePoint to hide the items once the end date has passed?
Thank you in advance.
Create a view on the list or change default view and filter for startdate >= today and enddate < today. That should do what you want or do you have special requirements?

I have been trying to find an answer to my problem but to no avail, so hoping someone is able to provide some ideas / advice on if this is possible and if so, how to go about it? I've tried various things and none have worked.
We create views within SQL and then connect to them using 'Import' from the Data Connectivity Mode when connecting to the SQL Server from within Power BI. Within the view, we use tables that contain a 'Valid From Date' and 'Valid To Date' for each row of data, so when a change occurs a row is closed off and a new row is created. This is so we can limit the rows of data within the table.
When trying to create a report within Power BI, we need to make it that the end user can use a data drop down list to select a date and the data within the whole of the report shows any rows that the selected date falls on or between the Valid From and Valid To dates. We use Cards, Tables, Matrix and Charts within our reports, so all would need to reflect the date selected by the user.
I have tried various methods that I could think to get it to work but each have had limitations where it either doesn't work or only partly works.
Any help / advice on this would be really appreciated.
Many Thanks

I have one query can somebody please tell how to show Latest date in a date format
So basically, I want to show the latest date selected by default and if the user wants to select other dates they can change manually but the latest date should be in a date format
Date = IF('Query'[Date] = MAX('Q'[Date]), "Latest Date", FORMAT('Query'[Date], "MM-DD-YYYY"))
Please help to show the latest date in a date format
eg: MM-DD-YYYY
First of all, unless you use a static value like "Latest Date" as you have done in the column above, you will not be able to set the slicer to the latest date. However, you can have your report behave as though the latest date were selected if nothing is selected.
Based on your formula, I am assuming that the table Query holds the static latest date of the model and that the table Q is your calendar table.
Create these measures:
Pivot Date = MAX(Query[Date])
Earliest Selected Date = IF(ISFILTERED(Q[Date]),MIN(Q[Date]),[Pivot Date])
Latest Selected Date = IF(ISFILTERED(Q[Date]),MAX(Q[Date]),[Pivot Date])
Now the hard part is you need to write all your measures to use the date range defined by Earliest and Latest Selected instead of just leaving it up to the slicer to control the dates. This allows you to control what's displayed when nothing is selected.
ExampleMeasure =
var start_date = [Earliest Selected Date]
var end_date = [Latest Selected Date]
return
CALCULATE([Some Measure], removefilters(q[date]), q[date] >= start_date, q[date] <= end_date)
One of the drawbacks of this approach is that you may be depending on your slicer to show the user which dates are selected. To overcome that, add an unobtrusive visual that shows the dates in use. I like to use a Multi Row Card for this and place it in the top right corner of every page. I include these measures: Available From, Available to, Selected From and Selected To. That way viewers know how much data is in the report overall, and they know what's selected at this time. Placing this in the same place on every page in every report is an excellent practice as your viewers will become habituated to consulting this spot for date info.
Finally, I want to point out that you could implement this logic with calculation groups, and that is how I would do it in one of my own reports. Doing so would eliminate the need to modify all the measures you already have, but it would introduce a number of complexities. Calculation Groups have a big learning curve, so you need to be prepared for that journey. The alternative I have suggested will be quicker than getting up to speed on Calculation Groups. However, you should learn how to use them. I highly recommend everything at sqlbi.com on this topic. They have an excellent search tool on the site to find all their content related to Calculation Groups.
I'm brand new to Power BI and I'm used to setting up most of my data in SQL Server (for SSRS). I have a data set and I was able to add in a Calendar table with my dates. My goal is to do a Year-over-year comparison. I got the year-over-year part working with the help of a couple of tutorials, but I want to restrict the report output to only data up to the last end of month (otherwise the YoY shows a case differential for dates out into 2021 - not helpful). I need a dynamic filter and all I seem to be able to set are static filters. This filter needs to be on the data itself - nothing a user can or should touch. Any help would be appreciated.
am a newbie to PowerBi i need some help to filter all the values which come in between the start date and end date. when i tried only one of the filter is working and both the start date and end date are drop down filters i've taken just a dummy data set and practicing it. before implementing it in my project.
this is my dummy data set which i have created in excel. I created a Table based on Employee joining("start date") and Employee resignation date("end date"). The values are a bit unrealistic but i need the logic how we can implement it i need to have both start and end date as Drop Down filters for getting the records between that time frame .
Please use Advanced Filtering in visual filters.
I have a couple of simple questions on DatePicker...
Is it possible for me to select a time along with my date? How can I do that?
I need to make sure my user can not pick a date that happens before a certain time, and I also need to make sure that the user can select dates further back in history that is the norm...
How can I do that?
No, the date picker is specifically for dates, no times. You can always build one separately. Just Google it. Also, what do you mean by a date before a certain time? Why not just limit the dates minDate and maxDate options?
