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.

       

      Regards,
