now if user selects 1st value(001-01/01/2021-31/03/2021) then show the dates from 01/01/2021to 31/03/2021 in dashboard

if user selects 2nd value(001-04/01/2021-30/06/2021) then show the dates from 04/01/2021 to30/06/2021 in dashboard

please help me how to achieve this one.

Hi @ramrongala, I think you can use a link table between periods and calendar dates, so you have all dates for every period, and if you select a period you will associate with corresponding dates in calendar. An example:

Calendar
--------
Date
1/1/2021
2/1/2021
3/1/2021

Link Table
------------------------------------
Period                    | Date
From 1/1/2021 To 2/1/2021 | 1/1/2021
From 1/1/2021 To 2/1/2021 | 2/1/2021
From 2/1/2021 To 3/1/2021 | 2/1/2021
From 2/1/2021 To 3/1/2021 | 3/1/2021
