Good. I need to add a certain number of years to a column of dates. I have found solution with M language in query or through queries. I would like to know the solution through DAX since I want to do it through a measure including a conditional. I mean:
-I have a column of dates.
-If the date is greater than 2023 I add 5 years to the date.
-If the date is less than 2023 I add 2 years to the date. I have tried with DATEADD but I am not able to. What do you recommend?
Thank you. Best regards.
Solved! Go to Solution.
pls try this
Measure =
VAR _Curentdate = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Date])
VAR _offset1 = MONTH(_Curentdate) *5 *12
VAR _offset2 = MONTH(_Curentdate)*2 *12
RETURN
SWITCH( TRUE(),
_Curentdate>= DATE(2023,1,1), EDATE(_Curentdate,_offset1), EDATE(_Curentdate,_offset2))Hi,
Try this measure
Measure = if(year(min(Data[Date]))<2023,edate(min(Data[Date]),2),edate(min(Data[Date]),5))
Hope this helps.
Good
Thanks for the reply. I have tried what it proposes and it works for me. In fact, I have accepted it as a solution. The problem is that I always try to solve through measures and avoid calculated columns as much as possible. I am trying to implement the same solution with a measure but I am not able. Could you tell me how I can apply the same solution to a measure? Thank you so much. Best regards.
pls try this
Measure =
VAR _Curentdate = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Date])
VAR _offset1 = MONTH(_Curentdate) *5 *12
VAR _offset2 = MONTH(_Curentdate)*2 *12
RETURN
SWITCH( TRUE(),
_Curentdate>= DATE(2023,1,1), EDATE(_Curentdate,_offset1), EDATE(_Curentdate,_offset2))pls try this
Column =
VAR _offset1 = MONTH([Date]) *5 *12
VAR _offset2 = MONTH([Date]) *2 *12
RETURN
SWITCH( TRUE(),
[Date]>= DATE(2023,1,1), EDATE([Date],_offset1), EDATE([Date],_offset2))Share feedback directly with Fabric product managers, participate in targeted research studies and influence the Fabric roadmap.
