date table

Hi all, 

 

I have two queries that i would to join... 

So first query is a table of 3 columns (Date, product, Quantity) and for this one i have everyday of a year

 

for the second query, i have 4 columns (Date, product, price, segment product) but only 4 point of data per year per product (it's a pricing policy/strtegy) 

 

my objective is to add the price columns to my first table, to be able to simply multiply my quantity by princing decided by corporate. 

 

Thanks a lot 

 

Let me know if i can be more precise

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    First create a column in query 2:

     

    next period = 
var _next= CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[Date]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Date]>EARLIER('Table'[Date])&&'Table'[Product]=EARLIER('Table'[Product])))
Return
IF(_next=BLANK(),DATE(YEAR(MAX('Table'[Date])),12,31),_next)

     

    Then create a measure as below:

     

    _cost = 
CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[Price]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Date]<=MAX('Query 1'[Date])&&'Table'[next period]>=MAX('Query 1'[Date])&&'Table'[Product]=MAX('Query 1'[Product])))

     

     And you will find that the price has been added to query 1 according to period setting.

     

    For the related .pbix file,pls see attached.

     

    Best Regards,
    Kelly

    Anonymous , a new column like

     

    minx(filter(table2, table1[product] =table2[product] && table1[Date] = table2[Date]),table2[price])

     

    or

    minx(filter(table2, table1[product] =table2[product] && year(table1[Date]) = year(table2[Date])),table2[price])

      hi amitchandak

      thanks for quick reply, i used your method, but it partially worked... the difficulty is to have a changing price between period, if i use your method, on my new column i only have the data i need at one date vs all date (in order to calculate turnover etc).
