DAX selecting from Quarter Column the current Quarter to find out the QTD.

Anonymous — Tue, 08 Nov 2022 16:04:07 GMT

I have a table with several columns, 1 of them is Quarter and the values are Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4.

I need to fix my DAX to select the current QTD value from the Quarter column in the filter (instead of manually changing them every time).

Weekly Pacing Target = Calculate(SUM('TABLE'[Budget])/12, FILTER( TABLE,'TABLE'[Year]=2018 && 'TABLE'[Quarter]="Q3"))

So instead of having Q3 there what should I have to automatically take the current Quarter , in this case Q4?

Also here:

TARGETX=

CALCULATE(sum(TABLE[Budget])*

(DATEDIFF(DATE(2022,7,1),TODAY(),DAY) / DATEDIFF(DATE(2022,7,1),DATE(2022,9,30),DAY)), TABLE[Channel]= "Twitter", TABLE[Quarter] = "Q4", TABLE[Year]=2022)

instead of having like to manually choose Quarter and Year i need to it to automatic please someone help.

Hi Anonymous ,

Please have a try.

Create measures.

Weekly Pacing Target = VAR _1 = "Q" & QUARTER ( TODAY () ) RETURN CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'TABLE'[Budget] ) / 12, FILTER ( TABLE, 'TABLE'[Year] = 2018 && 'TABLE'[Quarter] = _1 ) )

TARGETX = VAR _1 = "Q" & QUARTER ( TODAY () ) RETURN CALCULATE ( SUM ( TABLE[Budget] ) * ( DATEDIFF ( DATE ( 2022, 7, 1 ), TODAY (), DAY ) / DATEDIFF ( DATE ( 2022, 7, 1 ), DATE ( 2022, 9, 30 ), DAY ) ), TABLE[Channel] = "Twitter", TABLE[Quarter] = _1, TABLE[Year] = 2022 )

If I have misunderstood your meaning, please provide more details with your desired output and pbix file without privacy information.
