Dax and Power BI, default and slicer

Question

How can we set up a report which shows the default of today's date

I tried to create a report filter in DAX

Date_Today_Default = 
var currentrowdate = FORMAT('Date'[DATE], "dd/mm/yyyy")
var DateToday = FORMAT(TODAY(),"dd/mm/yyyy")
return
IF(DateToday = currentrowdate, "YES", "NO")

But I want to default values when a report is open

Answer 1

Make some changes and try with this formula

Date_Today_Default = 
var currentrowdate = FORMAT(Max('Date'[Date]), "dd/mm/yyyy")
var DateToday = FORMAT(TODAY(),"dd/mm/yyyy")
return
IF (isFiltered(SlicerDate[Date]), "YES", IF (DateToday = currentrowdate, "YES", "NO"))
