Calculation groups and/or Time Intelligence Issues
Hello,
I switched off "Auto date/time", of course everything broke. I had saved prior, so I just turned it back on. Closed out of Power Bi and re-opened my file. Everything seemed ok until I looked at my calculation groups and they were all screwed up. I re-created some seperate time intelligence functions to veryify it wasnt just my calc groups and none will return a value. I cant figure out what is broke. By dim-dates are also not sorting correctly but I cant figure out how to fix.
The following are the Time intelligence functions i'm using.
RevOps608 , Make sure you are using explicit measure with calculation group
The year should be coming from date table. Do not use any hierarchy there. Use a year, month year column
I tested it , and it was working fine, Please find the attached file after signature

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 :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.
