Calculate value by taking the data from starting till the date selected in slicer

Hi all, 

 

Need help in creating the measure to calculate value from starting date till the date slected in slicer, for example we have data from 2018 jan. If we select relative date as last 60 days, then we need to get data from 2018 jan till today-60 days. So we need subtract those relative date days from today. 

 

Thanks in advance 

Sai

Hi @Anonymous 

I think you may want to calculate the values from 2018 Jan(Start Date) untill the calculate date by today - daydiff you select in slicer. Ex if you select last 60 days, you may want to calculate values from 2018 Jan untill (2020/11/05-60). In other words, you need the values in which daydiff >=60.

I build a sample to have a test,

Data Table (I add a dynamicdaydiff column in this table by calculated column): 

DynamicDayDiff = DATEDIFF(Data[Date],TODAY(),DAY)

Slicer Table:

 My Measure:

M.value = 
Var _DayDiff = CALCULATE(MAX(Slicer[DayDiff]),FILTER(Slicer,Slicer[Relative Date]=SELECTEDVALUE(Slicer[Relative Date])))
Var _Value = CALCULATE(SUM(Data[Value]),FILTER(Data,Data[DynamicDayDiff]>=_DayDiff))
Return
_Value

Result is as below.

By default, the table visual will show all values.

Select Last 60 days, it will show results from 2020/01/01 until (2020/11/05-60) = 2020/09/06.
