Clarification Needed: Time Intelligence DAX Won't Work in RLS?

[yyzheng12]

I'm reading up this statement in almost all time intelligence DAX tutorials. 

• This function is not supported for use in DirectQuery mode when used in calculated columns or row-level security (RLS) rules.

Does it mean that all time-intelligence DAX won't work in a visual if an RLS rule is implemented on top of it?

Thanks!

Hi @yyzheng12 ,

That statement means : If you are using Direct Query Mode or RLS, you cann't use the Time Intelligence function in the DAX expression of RLS rules or calculated columns.

For more details, please refer to:
