Hi Experts,

    You could create a calculated column, = TODAY() and relate that to a date table with dates and associated fiscal quarter.

      Assuming your date dimension has a field containing calendar dates:

      Current Fiscal Quarter =
LOOKUPVALUE(
    DimDate[Fiscal Quarter]
    ,DimDate[Date]
    ,TODAY()
)

      You can then use this anywhere you need to return the current fiscal quarter. This is unaffected by filter or row context.

        Thanks greggyb,

         

        I could resolve many "current"s like Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter, Week etc.
