Hi there,
Here is a modified extract from a table in my data model....bear in mind the table has a number of different Asset References, but I've listed a group of AAA here:
| Asset Reference | Leased Area | Lease.Lease Status | Lease.Commencement Date | Lease.Expiration Date | Lease.Termination Date |
| AAA | 12542 | Holding Over | 29-Sep-90 | 28-Sep-15 | |
| AAA | 6809 | Active | 23-Feb-22 | 31-Dec-99 | |
| AAA | 6809 | Active | 22-Jul-16 | 21-Jul-26 | |
| AAA | 6992 | Active | 29-Sep-14 | 28-Sep-24 | |
| AAA | Active | 15-Sep-22 | 14-Sep-37 | ||
| AAA | 12010 | Active | 19-Mar-19 | 18-Sep-19 | |
| AAA | 16575 | Active | 03-Feb-12 | 02-Feb-27 | |
| AAA | 7000 | Active | 14-May-22 | 13-May-27 | |
| AAA | 7000 | Active | 15-Aug-13 | 10-Nov-99 | |
| AAA | 12249 | Active | 09-Apr-13 | 08-Apr-23 | |
| AAA | 1241 | Active | 14-Aug-19 | 13-Aug-29 | |
| AAA | Active | 01-Apr-19 | 31-Dec-99 | ||
| AAA | 0 | Holding Over | 29-Apr-15 | 28-Apr-21 |
I am trying to SUM the Leased Area column. But I need to do so applying the following conditions:
1. The [Lease.Commencement Date] must be <= my measure [as of date] (as of date is a date picker in my report)
2. Either the [Lease.Expiration Date] must be >= [as of date] OR the [Lease.Lease Status] must either be 'Holding Over' OR 'Month-to-Month'
3. The [Lease.Termination Date] must be blank. However, if there is a date there, it must be >= [as of date]
Based on this logic with an [as of date] = 31/12/2022, I'd want the following green items summed for this asset:
My current DAX brings up the error - 'Argument 7 in CALCULATE function is required'. I do not know what is going wrong and not even sure my method is the best approach.
Current code:
Total Leased Area (Current) =
VAR _asofdate = [As Of Date]
VAR _assetref = MAX(Building[Asset Reference])
VAR _TotalLeasedArea =
CALCULATE (
SUM(Lease_Unit[Leased Area] ),
Lease_Unit[Asset Reference] = _assetref,
Lease_Unit[Lease.Commencement Date] <= _asofdate,
FILTER(Lease_Unit,
Lease_Unit[Lease.Expiration Date] >= _asofdate &&
OR(
Lease_Unit[Lease.Lease Status] = "Holding Over",
Lease_Unit[Lease.Lease Status] = "Month-to-Month"
)
),
FILTER(Lease_Unit,
OR(
Lease_Unit[Lease.Termination Date] >= _asofdate,
ISBLANK( Lease_Unit[Lease.Termination Date] )
)
),
FILTER (Unit,
OR (
Unit[Unit Start Date] <= _asofdate,
ISBLANK(Unit[Unit Start Date] )
)
&& OR (
Unit[Unit End Date] >= _asofdate,
ISBLANK(Unit[Unit End Date])
)
),
)
RETURN
_TotalLeasedArea
Any help appreciated with more efficient code without error.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@julesdude the table has to pass all 3 tests. So you can chain the test rather than find the instersection of all the conditions at once
Measure =
VAR asOfDate =
DATE ( 2022, 12, 31 )
VAR filtTblOne =
FILTER ( tbl, tbl[Lease.Commencement Date] <= asOfDate )
VAR filtTblTwo =
FILTER (
filtTblOne,
tbl[Lease.Expiration Date] >= asOfDate
|| ( tbl[Lease.Lease Status] = "Holding Over"
|| tbl[Lease.Lease Status] = "Month-to-Month" )
)
VAR filtTblThree =
FILTER (
filtTblTwo,
tbl[Lease.Termination Date] = BLANK ()
|| tbl[Lease.Termination Date] >= asOfDate
)
RETURN
CALCULATE ( SUM ( tbl[Leased Area] ), filtTblThree )

The comma in the fourth line from the bottom is redundant
