Help in time related DAX

Anonymous — Wed, 16 Mar 2022 05:15:06 GMT

Hey Experts,

I need help with dax.

I have two columns one is SALE DATE and one is ORDER DATE. I need one column or measure according below condition,
Ever order date has multiple sale date.
My sale date always should be last thursday of month. so whatever order date is there whichever coming sale date is "current" for me and otherones are "Next" for me.

example:

Order date	Sale date	Exp(REQUIRED MEASURE)
16/03/2022	\|\|\|31/03/2022(last thursday of march)	\|\|\|Current
16/03/2022	\|\|\|28/04/2022(last thursday of april)	\|\|\|Next
22/04/2022	\|\|\|28/04/2022(last thursday of april)	\|\|\|Current
22/04/2022	\|\|\|26/05/2022(last thursday of may)	\|\|\|Next

Hi,

Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

Expected result measure: = VAR currentorderdate = MAX ( Data[Order date] ) VAR commingsalesdate = CALCULATE ( MIN ( Data[Sale date] ), ALLEXCEPT ( Data, Data[Order date] ) ) VAR result = IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( Data[Order date] ) = currentorderdate && SELECTEDVALUE ( Data[Sale date] ) = commingsalesdate, "Current", "Next" ) RETURN IF ( HASONEVALUE ( Data[Order date] ), result )

Not Working in my case.

Distribution2 =

VAR currentdate =

MAX ( Sheet1[Date] )

VAR commingexpdate =

CALCULATE ( MIN ( Sheet1[Exp] ), ALLEXCEPT ( Sheet1, Sheet1[Date] ) )

VAR result =

IF (

SELECTEDVALUE ( Sheet1[Date] ) = currentdate

&& SELECTEDVALUE ( Sheet1[Exp] ) = commingexpdate,

"Current",

"Next"

)

RETURN

IF ( HASONEVALUE ( Sheet1[Date] ), result )

Please share your sample.

I think the sample that is described in your question is different than what you show in the reply.

Hi @Anonymous
You can try this calculated column

Distribution Column: = VAR CurrentSaleDate = Data[exp] VAR CurrentOrderDateTable = CALCULATETABLE ( Sheet1, ALLEXCEPT ( Sheet1, Sheet1[Date] ) ) VAR NumberOfSales = COUNTROWS ( CurrentOrderDateTable ) VAR FirstSaleDate = MINX ( CurrentOrderDateTable, Sheet1[exp] ) VAR Result = IF ( NumberOfSales = 1, "Current", IF ( CurrentSaleDate = FirstSaleDate, "Current", "Next" ) ) RETURN Result

Hello @Anonymous

First make a Date dimension table (Date = CALENDARAUTO()) and make following relationship between 'Order Date' and 'Date':

After that use following measure:

Measure =

VAR startdate =

DATE ( YEAR ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Order Date] ) ), MONTH ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Order Date] ) ), 1 )

VAR enddate =

DATE ( YEAR ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Order Date] ) ), MONTH ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Order Date] ) ) + 1, 1 ) - 1

VAR maxthursday =

CALCULATE (

MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ),

FILTER (

ALL ( 'Date' ),

'Date'[Date] >= startdate

&& 'Date'[Date] <= enddate

&& FORMAT ( 'Date'[Date], "dddd" ) = "Thursday"

)

VAR conditionCurrentNext =

IF (

( maxthursday = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Sale Date] ) ),

"Current",

IF (

(

SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Sale Date] ) > maxthursday

&& SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Order Date] ) < maxthursday

"Next",

IF (

(

SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Order Date] ) > maxthursday

&& DATEDIFF (

SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Order Date] ),

SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Sale Date] ),

DAY

) > 31

"Next",

"Current"

)

RETURN

conditionCurrentNext

The output I got with this measure matched your requirement:

Please accept it as a solution if it matches your requirement🙂

@Anonymous
Also I believe that the solution provide by @Jihwan_Kim should work with no issues. Is there any chance that we are missing something here?

Hi, @Anonymous ;

Try it.

result = VAR _min = CALCULATE ( MIN ( Data[Sale date] ),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Data'),[Order date]=MAX([Order date]))) RETURN IF ( MAX( Data[Sale date] ) = _min, "Current", "Next")

The final output is shown below:
