Hello everybody!
I need to add a column to my calendar to filter in my views just for completed months.
The calendar I am using is a fiscal calendar like
Date - Fiscal Month
Does someone know any dax function to get a False/ True, of the date is within a completed fiscal month?
Solved! Go to Solution.
// Let's say that FiscalMonthID is
// a unique identifier of a fiscal
// month in Calendar.
[Full Fiscal Month] = // calculated column
var __today = TODAY()
var __currentFiscalMonth = Calendar[FiscalMonthID]
var __allFiscalMonthDatesAreOK =
ISEMPTY(
FILTER(
'Calendar',
Calendar[FiscalMonthID] = __currentFiscalMonth
&&
Calendar[Date] > __today
)
)
RETURN
__allFiscalMonthDatesAreOK

This should get your desired result in a calculated column (this example is on the Date table).
If this works for you, please mark it as the solution. Kudos are appreciated too. Please let me know if not.

That's really clever 👍 Just one line to cater for end of month check, amazing!
Perfect - very simple but does the job!!
@mahoneypat Thanks a lot! Are you sure this works with a fiscal month with individual end dates for each month (mentioned in starting post)?
// Let's say that FiscalMonthID is
// a unique identifier of a fiscal
// month in Calendar.
[Full Fiscal Month] = // calculated column
var __today = TODAY()
var __currentFiscalMonth = Calendar[FiscalMonthID]
var __allFiscalMonthDatesAreOK =
ISEMPTY(
FILTER(
'Calendar',
Calendar[FiscalMonthID] = __currentFiscalMonth
&&
Calendar[Date] > __today
)
)
RETURN
__allFiscalMonthDatesAreOK

It won't work for fiscal months. I forgot about that part. What is your logic to determine the fiscal month. If you share it, I will try an alternate expression.

The fiscal months are based on the fiscal weeks:
Week 1-4 = January
Week 5-8 = February
Week 9-13 = March
The measure is:
Thanks for the reply!
A month is completed when every day is in the past
