Reporting filter that gives a snapshot of data on a reporting date

Several of the reports that I have to produce ask for a snapshot of student data on a particular date, perhaps the 20th class day of the academic year. The data slicer does a good job of showing the current data but cannot account for changes that have happened during the term, such as students dropping courses, causing them to go from full-time to part-time, or a change in major. IPEDS is one of the reports that asks for enrollment as of the institution's official fall reporting date or as of October 15, so I assume something like this is already written into the IPEDS filter, but I would like to have that functionality in generic data slicer reports.
