I am currently using the following to create a Date Dim.
Date =
ADDCOLUMNS (
CALENDAR (DATE(2000,1,1), DATE(2025,12,31)),
"DateAsInteger", FORMAT ( [Date], "YYYYMMDD" ),
"Year", YEAR ( [Date] ),
"Monthnumber", FORMAT ( [Date], "MM" ),
"YearMonthnumber", FORMAT ( [Date], "YYYY/MM" ),
"YearMonthShort", FORMAT ( [Date], "YYYY/mmm" ),
"MonthShortYear",FORMAT([Date], "mmm-YYYY"),
"MonthNameShort", FORMAT ( [Date], "mmm" ),
"MonthNameLong", FORMAT ( [Date], "mmmm" ),
"DayOfWeekNumber", WEEKDAY ( [Date] ),
"DayOfWeek", FORMAT ( [Date], "dddd" ),
"DayOfWeekShort", FORMAT ( [Date], "ddd" ),
"Quarter", "Q" & FORMAT ( [Date], "Q" ),
"YearQuarter", FORMAT ( [Date], "YYYY" ) & "/Q" & FORMAT ( [Date], "Q" )
)
I would like to also have the following in the table:
Please let me know if you have suggestion how to include this.
Thanks.!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Here's what you can try:
Date = ADDCOLUMNS ( CALENDAR (DATE(2000,1,1), DATE(2025,12,31)), "DateAsInteger", FORMAT ( [Date], "YYYYMMDD" ), "Year", YEAR ( [Date] ), "Monthnumber", FORMAT ( [Date], "MM" ), "YearMonthnumber", FORMAT ( [Date], "YYYY/MM" ), "YearMonthShort", FORMAT ( [Date], "YYYY/mmm" ), "MonthShortYear",FORMAT([Date], "mmm-YYYY"), "MonthNameShort", FORMAT ( [Date], "mmm" ), "MonthNameLong", FORMAT ( [Date], "mmmm" ), "DayOfWeekNumber", WEEKDAY ( [Date] ), "DayOfWeek", FORMAT ( [Date], "dddd" ), "DayOfWeekShort", FORMAT ( [Date], "ddd" ), "Quarter", "Q" & FORMAT ( [Date], "Q" ), "YearQuarter", FORMAT ( [Date], "YYYY" ) & "/Q" & FORMAT ( [Date], "Q" ), "Week Number", WEEKNUM ( [Date] ), "Week Number and Year", "W" & WEEKNUM ( [Date] ) & " " & YEAR ( [Date] ), "WeekYearNumber", YEAR ( [Date] ) & 100 + WEEKNUM ( [Date] ) )
'Date'[WeekYearNumber] is used to sort 'Date'[Week Number and Year].
