Calculate Merchant inactivity based on transaction

[Anonymous]

Hi ,

Could someone help me in this use case how to write correct calculation measures??

Goal :  Calculate Inactivity Days : Compare previous day to last day where transactions were performed

Filters for target table are set up as

Date Filter
from :  20.05.2020	To: 21.05.2020

Detail table is :

Detail data
tran No	detail_date	TID	Name
1	01.05.2020	Z00004	Name 1
2	01.05.2020	Z00004	Name 1
3	17.05.2020	Z00005	Name 2
4	20.05.2020	Z00005	Name 2
5	13.05.2020	Z00006	Name 3
6	21.05.2020	Z00006	Name 3

Target table with gouping and calculation is :

Date	TID	Merchant Name	Inactivity Days	inactivity days calculation description
20.05.2020	Z00004	Name 1	19	number of days from 20.05.2020 - number of days from last transaction  01.05.2020

@Anonymous , with date table if this example can help

Last Day Non Continous = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(all('Date'),'Date'[Date] =MAXX(FILTER(all('Date'),'Date'[Date]<max('Date'[Date])),'order'['Date'])))

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :
