    Hi!
    Do you want to be able to reference the date, or is just the text string "YYYY QQ" fine? If text only is okay you could create something like this:

    Quarter + 0 := 
    VAR VarDate = today()
    return
    format(VarDate,"yyyy")&" Q"&format(VarDate,"q")
    
    Quarter + 1 := 
    VAR VarDate = edate(TODAY(),3)
    return
    FORMAT(VarDate,"yyyy")&" Q"&FORMAT(VarDate,"q")
    
    
    //and so on...

     

    To get measures that update dynamically.

    Hope this helps!
