Compare data with different start dates

[Anonymous]

Hi, 

I would like to compare thee datasets, each of these datasets start on different dates, but i would like to see them in the same visual?

Date	Rating
18/16/2020	5

I'm thinking of creating a new column then assign a number to each date starting from one till the end date. (and how to do this?)

Then I would be able to compare each of the dates?

Do you think this would achive this or is there a better way to do this?

Thanks

@Anonymous , not very clear. Can you please explain with an example.

You can create a common date table and join all dates with that and analyze

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 :

Hi, 

Sorry hopefully this will sort it out, below are the datasets

Date	Rating	Order
10/01/2018	1	1
11/01/2018	5	2
12/01/2018	4	3
13/01/2018	1	4
14/01/2018	5	5

Date	Rating	Order
10/02/2019	1	1
11/02/2019	2	2
12/02/2019	4	3
13/02/2019	1	4
14/02/2019	2	5

Date	Rating	Order
10/05/2020	1	1
11/05/2020	2	2
12/05/2020	4	3
13/05/2020	1	4
14/05/2020	6	5

I have added the order column myself and think this is the way to do it ?

So i would be able to put the rating and the order on a visual so i can see over the first 30days of each of the datasrts how each dataset compares to each other?

hope this is clear?

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,

Based on your sample data, you can add index column or create a calculated column like :

column = DAY(Table[Date])
