How to pass custom Measure value to table filter via DAX

Anonymous — Mon, 19 May 2025 04:04:21 GMT

I have an existing table that has a date filter that I have set up manually.

What I want to do is pass a value from a custom measure ( a single month number of 1 or 2 etc up to 12 )

to the existing filter thats on the table.

When I run the performance analyzer, I can see the date value in the DAX code for the table :

VAR __DS0FilterTable2 =

TREATAS({DATE(2024, 3, 1)}, 'Calendar'[month])

If I had a custom measure called [Custom_month] that produced say a numeric value of "2" for the month

how would I modify the code above to replace the "3" with a "2" from the custom measure please?

Also, if I create dax and run it in DAX query view against the model, will it store the DAX code forever in the model?

Thanks in advance.

You could create a calculation group to apply the filter. Create a couple of calculation items like

No Change = SELECTEDMEASURE()

and

Add custom filter = CALCULATE ( SELECTEDMEASURE (), TREATAS ( { DATE ( 2024, [Custom_month], 1 ) }, 'Calendar'[month] ) )

Then add the calculation group as a filter on the visuals you want to be affected, and choose "Add custom filter" as the only value.

With regards to DAX in DAX Query View, the query will be stored whenever you save the file. If you publish it to the service and then subsequently download it, the query will still be available.
