Adding QTD and YTD to DimDate

‎01-08-2019 08:11 AM

Hi Experts

 

How would you add to a dimdate calender table the QTD and YTD columns so when you select either QTD or YTD in a slicer we get the correct sales for that period. i have created the necessary relationship between DimDate and DinSales tables..

So, without sample data, can only sort of guess, but it should be something like what I have in a bunch of my Quick Measures like Time Intelligence the Hard Way:

You will also probably want Quarter:

Hi @Anonymous,

 

It's not a good idea to add the sales amount as columns in the Date table. I would suggest you use measures instead. Please try these DAX functions. totalytd-function-dax, totalqtd-function-dax.

 

 

Best Regards,
Dale
