DateTrunc in power BI

I am converting the tableau functions to Power BI.

I am having doubts in this

dateadd('day',-1,datetrunc('month',dateadd('month',1,[Calendar day])))

How do I convert this to power DAX

For Example: if the  Calender day is 12/4/2022, after dateadd('month',1,{Calender day]) the month gets added by 1. So the answer is "12/5/2022" then  datetrunced by month "1/5/2022". For dateadd the date is substracted by -1. So the final answer is 30/4/2022.

if date = 3/6/2019 answer  after dateadd= 30/6/2019

How do I achieve this in power BI?

  • For this use case you want EOMONTH([Calendar day],0).

    As a more general example you can build dates like

    DATE( YEAR([Calendar date]), MONTH([Calendar date]) + 1, DAY([Calendar date]))
  • asdf1608  in power bi End of Month Dax function 

    End Date = ENDOFMONTH('Date'[Date])
