5. Add your filtered date range in the tooltip

Don’t forget to add your filtered date range in the tooltip. This is one of the most important filter to display.

How to add your filtered date range in the tooltip

• Edit the ‘Selected filters’ measure and add a new variable (Filtered_date)

Selected filters = 
VAR CR_LF = "
    "   // This is a simple carriage return
VAR Filtered_date = "- Orders dates from " & FORMAT(MIN(Orders[OrderDate]) ; "dd/mm/yyyy") & " to " & FORMAT(MAX(Orders[OrderDate]) ; "dd/mm/yyyy") & CR_LF 
VAR Company = IF(ISFILTERED(Customers[CompanyName]) ; 
                "Company = " & CONCATENATEX(ALLSELECTED(Customers[CompanyName]) ; Customers[CompanyName] ; " , ") & CR_LF ; "")
VAR Category = IF(ISFILTERED(Categories[CategoryName]) ; 
                "Category = " & CONCATENATEX(ALLSELECTED(Categories[CategoryName]) ; Categories[CategoryName] ; " , ") & CR_LF ; "")
VAR Product = IF(ISFILTERED(Products[ProductName]) ; 
                "Product = " & CONCATENATEX(ALLSELECTED(Products[ProductName]) ; Products[ProductName] ; " , ") & CR_LF ; "")

RETURN  Filtered_date & Company & Category & Product 

You may adapt the date format to your needs.

From now on, the date range filter will appear in any page you desire.

Tips

You may even create a dedicated measure for the date range filter and display it in all your pages or in the title of some visuals.
