Converting an SQL query to DAX

Hi, I am trying to convert an SQL query to Dax - any ideas please?
select
l.council,
sg,
type,
population,
case
when datepart(month, transaction_date) < 7 then 'H1' else 'H2' end as half,
datepart(year,transaction_date) as year,
sum(amount) as total
from
sg_client_region l join sg_trans_mapped r
on l.clientID = r.customer_id
join pops r2 on l.council = r2.council
where r.subcategory not like ('%transfer%') and transaction_date > '2017-01-01'
group by
l.council, sg, type, population, datepart(year,transaction_date),
case when datepart(month, transaction_date) < 7 then 'H1' else 'H2' end;

Cheers

For your requirement, you could refer to this article about how to convert SQL query to DAX firstly.

If you still need help, please share your data sample and your desired output so that I could write the dax expression.
