Using Dateadd
Hi,
I can t use the DATEADD function correctly.
DATEADD(HISTORIQUE[DateFinPeriodeEssai1],-nbjprevenance,DAY)
-nbjprevenance = variable
if I put 0 in place of the variable, I get the right dates. But as soon as I want to add or subtract, nothing goes, sometimes I have the right answer, sometimes nothing.
Thank you for your help
Hi,
After many tests, I tried this syntax:
HISTORIQUE[DateFinPeriodeEssai1] - nbjprevenance
and it works.

PatriceGRENcan you provide details on how you are calculating nbjprevenance variable? Also do you have date dimension in your model on which you are performing this DateADD function?

Hi,
datePrevenancePeriodeEssai1 =
var nbj = HISTORIQUE[NombreJourDebutContrataDateJour]
var nbjprevenance =
switch(TRUE(); -- donne le nombre de jours de prévenance à respecter
nbj <8 ; 1;
and(nbj > 8 ; nbj <= 30);2;
and(nbj >30 ; nbj <= 90);15;30 )
return
DATEADD(HISTORIQUE[DateFinPeriodeEssai1];-nbjprevenance;DAY)
for the "Date Dimension", I'll look. This is a model that is available to me, I don't know yet everything in it.

In case you plan to use a slicer, you can have a measure. Here "Add to date" is a slicer
Date from slicer = Var date1='Add To Date'[Add To Date Value] return CALCULATE(maxx(Sales,DATEADD(Sales[Order_Date],date1,DAY)))
You want to add static value once as column
Date from slicer col = Var date1=1 return DATEADD(Sales[Order_Date],-1*date1,DAY)

Hi, I understand your solution, but it doesn't work for all my data
