Error with the year change

Hello,

I am getting the below error when refreshing a report with data that includes dates from 2022.

How would I modify the formula to include 2022 with the same principle, like =IF(OR in excel?

Many thanks!

Hi @Anonymous 

You could make it 

IF(YEAR >= 2021, ... 

then it'll work for 2023 too.

 

DAX does have an OR function.  If you want to use that then it would be

IF(OR(YEAR = 2021, YEAR = 2022), ...

 

Incidentally, is Week of Year a column name?  The syntax error is coming from there.  You should reference a column name like this

'Table Name'[Column Name]

Hi @Anonymous 

 

As @PaulOlding mentioned, you can use below for including 2022:

IF(YEAR >= 2021

IF(OR(YEAR = 2021, YEAR = 2022), 

IFYEAR = 2021 || YEAR = 2022,

 

and the error is for that Week of Year, if that is the column name and you want to create measure, you need to use it in [ ] with an aggregation formula, like MAX(table[Week of Year]), otherwise, if that is a measure, you need to use it in [ ] lke this [Week of Year], but if you want to create a calculated column you can just use the table[Week of Year] in your formula.
