This document discusses a solution to filter slicers in Power BI to only show relevant time periods that have data in the fact table. Specifically, it recommends: 1) Adding a calculated column to the date table that references the date field in the fact table. 2) Adding this calculated column as a filter at the report level. 3) Removing any blank/null values from the filter, which correspond to dates without data. This approach ensures the slicer only shows dates for which there is actual data in the fact table, improving the user experience by avoiding selection of irrelevant periods.
