Restrict output only for dates in dataset

Nisha357 — Thu, 20 Mar 2025 05:56:00 GMT

User Status Measure =

SWITCH(

TRUE(),

-- Mark as "Active" if conditions for activity are met

MAX(T[Date]) > CALCULATE(MIN(T[First Occurrence Date]), ALLEXCEPT(T, T[FN]))

&& MAX(T[Date]) >= DATE(2024, 10, 01),

"Active",

-- Mark as "Inactive" only for rows between 2024-10-01 and today

MAX(T[Date]) >= DATE(2024, 10, 01) &&

MAX(T[Date]) <= TODAY(),

"Inactive",

-- Exclude all rows outside the defined conditions

BLANK()

)

I have this measure for Inactive users it shows past and future dates i want only dates which are in dataset for both active and inactive users i tried putting filters in visual but it does not work. Please help here.

Nisha357 , Try using

DAX
User Status Measure =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
-- Mark as "Active" if conditions for activity are met
MAX(T[Date]) > CALCULATE(MIN(T[First Occurrence Date]), ALLEXCEPT(T, T[FN]))
&& MAX(T[Date]) >= DATE(2024, 10, 01)
&& CONTAINS(T, T[Date], MAX(T[Date])),
"Active",

-- Mark as "Inactive" only for rows between 2024-10-01 and today
MAX(T[Date]) >= DATE(2024, 10, 01)
&& MAX(T[Date]) <= TODAY()
&& CONTAINS(T, T[Date], MAX(T[Date])),
"Inactive",

-- Exclude all rows outside the defined conditions
BLANK()
)

You need to clarify your date conditions.

MAX(T[Date]) > CALCULATE(MIN(T[First Occurrence Date]), ALLEXCEPT(T, T[FN]))

&& MAX(T[Date]) >= DATE(2024, 10, 01),

This filter will consider any record for as long as CALCULATE(MIN(T[First Occurrence Date]), ALLEXCEPT(T, T[FN])) is below or equal to MAX(T[Date]).
foE example :

MAX(T[Date])	CALCULATE(MIN(T[First Occurrence Date]), ALLEXCEPT(T, T[FN]))	DATE(2024, 10, 01)	Satisfy first condition?	Satisfy Second Condition?	Is Active?
April 1, 2025	February 2, 2025	October 1, 2024	Y	Y	Y
April 1, 2025	April 12, 2025	October 1, 2024	N	Y	N
April 1, 2025	August 1, 2024	October 1, 2024	Y	Y	Y
April 1, 2025	December 23, 1950	October 1, 2024	Y	Y	Y

If the above is correct, then we can focus on Inactive.

MAX(T[Date]) >= DATE(2024, 10, 01) &&

MAX(T[Date]) <= TODAY(),
So as long as it is between Today and October 10, 2024 inclusive, it is inactive?
This sets a confusion. Other records that should be inactive can be included in the active. Kindly provide more details for Inactive records.
