Hi all,
I want to annotations to a graph however in order to make this work with my dynamic date table (month, week, day), I need to add three new rows and two columns to the table below:
I want to have a new column called "visual date", a "type" column and three new rows pr date with start date of month, week and date. Should look something like this:
I'm unsure how to do this, can anyone help?
Best,

Hi,
Please check the below DAX formula and the attached pbix file.
It is for creating a new table.
I suggest having a Dim-Calendar Table like the attached pbix file, that shows ISO year column and ISO weeknumber column.
NewTable =
VAR tableone =
ADDCOLUMNS ( Data, "@VisualDate", Data[Date], "@Type", "Day" )
VAR tabletwo =
ADDCOLUMNS (
Data,
"@VisualDate",
VAR _isoyear =
MAXX (
FILTER ( 'Calendar', 'Calendar'[Date] = Data[Date] ),
'Calendar'[ISO Year CC]
)
VAR _isoweek =
MAXX (
FILTER ( 'Calendar', 'Calendar'[Date] = Data[Date] ),
'Calendar'[ISO Week CC]
)
RETURN
MINX (
FILTER (
'Calendar',
'Calendar'[ISO Year CC] = _isoyear
&& 'Calendar'[ISO Week CC] = _isoweek
),
'Calendar'[Date]
),
"@Type", "Week"
)
VAR tablethree =
ADDCOLUMNS (
Data,
"@VisualDate", EOMONTH ( Data[Date], -1 ) + 1,
"@Type", "Month"
)
RETURN
UNION ( tableone, tabletwo, tablethree )

Hi @Anonymous
You need to create a table that combine [date] and [type] .
Then merage the Type table and dynamic date table in Query Editor to get a new table .
Then expand the new table and you will get a table like this :
Next you can create a [visual date] column according to [type] column .
visual date =
var _week=Merge1[Date]-WEEKDAY(Merge1[Date],2)+1
var _month=EOMONTH(Merge1[Date],-1)+1
return SWITCH(TRUE(),Merge1[Type.Type]="Day",Merge1[Date],Merge1[Type.Type]="Week",_week,Merge1[Type.Type]="Month",_month)
The final result is as shown :
I have attached my pbix file , you can refer to it .
