Return text value based off condition
Hi all,
I am trying to create a DAX mesure that will return the current quarter. my data looks like this:
Ive tried a bunch of different ways but nothing is working. the Dax would return the QTR of the latest date. so since the latested date is this data set is 11/25/20 the result should be Q2. what is the best approach to accomplish this?
thank you!!

Hi FatBlackCat30 ,
Try this measure,
Latest QTR = CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[QTR]),Filter(all('Table'),'Table'[date]=MAX('Table'[date])))
Let me know if you have any questions.
If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos 👍are nice too.
NathanielFatBlackCat30 , if you want to select a date(slicer) datesqtd can help. If you do want to select then stop your date calendar on today.
With date calendar and date in slicer
QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(('Date'[Date]))) Last QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,QUARTER))) Last complete QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD( ENDOFQUARTER(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,QUARTER)))) Last to last QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-2,QUARTER)))Else you need qtr start date in the calendar
Try like
Measure =
var _min = minx(allselected('Date') , 'Date'[Qtr Start Date]) //refer to blog to get this
var _min = maxx(allselected('Date') , 'Date'[Date])
return
calculate(countrows('Table'), Filter('Date', 'Date'[Date] >=_min && 'Date'[Date] <=_max ))
Measure =
var _min = minx(allselected('Date') , 'Date'[Qtr Start Date]) //refer to blog to get this
var _min = maxx(allselected('Date') , 'Date'[Date])
return
calculate(countrows('Table'), Filter('Table', 'Table'[Date] >=_min && 'Table'[Date] <=_max ))For Qtr Start Date
