Employee Tenure as of the Date Selected in the Slicer

AlvaVelazquez — Mon, 15 Aug 2022 16:26:48 GMT

I need help adjusting the measure below. I have a tenure calculated column for all employees based on Today's date or Term Date. I need to change the measure to calculate tenure based on the date selected in the Date Slicer not on Today's date. Example: If I selected January I would get the assocaites tenure as of January not Today's Month.

Tenure Calculated Column =

VAR _TermDate =

IF ( ISBLANK ( 'Associate Data'[Termination Date] ), Today(), 'Associate Data'[Termination Date] )

VAR _totalmonths =

DATEDIFF ( 'Associate Data'[Last Hire Date], _TermDate, MONTH )

VAR _years =

INT (

(

( DAY ( 'Associate Data'[Last Hire Date] ) > DAY ( _TermDate ) ) * -1 + _totalmonths

) / 12

)

VAR _tempmonths =

(

( DAY ( 'Associate Data'[Last Hire Date] ) > DAY ( _TermDate ) ) * -1 + _totalmonths

) / 12

)

- INT (

(

( DAY ( 'Associate Data'[Last Hire Date] ) > DAY ( _TermDate ) ) * -1 + _totalmonths

) / 12

)

) * 12

VAR _months =

ROUND ( _tempmonths, 0 )

RETURN

_years & " year(s) " & _months & " month(s)"

[Tenure] = // measure, not a calc column // Make sure only one employee is visible // in the current context. If there are many, // it makes no sense to calculate tenure. var ShoudCalculate = HASONEVALUE( 'Associate Data'[EmployeeID] ) var Result = if ( ShouldCalculate, // Grab the last date that's in context from the slicer // and treat this date as today in your code. // Slicer should not be connected to anything and you // should make sure in the slicer UI that only one date // can be selected. VAR TermDate = MAX( 'Date Slicer'[Date] ) VAR LastHireDate = SELECTEDVALUE( 'Associate Data'[Last Hire Date] ) VAR TotalMonths = DATEDIFF ( LastHireDate, TermDate, MONTH ) VAR DayCondition = INT( DAY ( LastHireDate ) > DAY ( TermDate ) ) VAR YearsFractional = ( TotalMonths - DayCondition ) / 12 VAR Years = INT ( YearsFractional ) VAR TempMonths = ( YearsFractional - Years ) * 12 VAR Months = ROUND ( TempMonths, 0 ) RETURN Years & " year(s) " & Months & " month(s)" ) return Result

If the formula I gave you is OK, please mark my answer as the solution so that the status is visible to others. Thanks.

Is this a measure and not a column? How can I turn it into a column?

Tenure column =

var ShoudCalculate = HASONEVALUE( 'Associate Data'[Associate ID] )

var Result =

if (

VAR TermDate = MAX( '!Calendar'[Date] )

VAR LastHireDate = SELECTEDVALUE( 'Associate Data'[Last Hire Date] )

VAR TotalMonths = DATEDIFF ( LastHireDate, TermDate, MONTH )

VAR DayCondition = INT( DAY ( LastHireDate ) > DAY ( TermDate ) )

VAR YearsFractional = ( TotalMonths - DayCondition ) / 12

VAR Years = INT ( YearsFractional )

VAR TempMonths = ( YearsFractional - Years ) * 12

VAR Months = ROUND ( TempMonths, 0 )

RETURN

Years & " year(s) " & Months & " month(s)"

)

return

Result

Is this a measure? I need a column in order to add slicers to tenure less than 1 year.
