Count Days Selected

Hi All,

I want to count the number of days currently selected by my sliders.... i have a year and a week slider. I did try this based on an article i found, but i can't seem to get it working:

 

CurrentDays = 
VAR FirstDay = CALCULATE(
        MIN('db_v_BaseCalendar_TYLY'[TransDate]),
        ALLSELECTED('db_v_BaseCalendar_TYLY'[TransDate]) )
VAR LastDay = CALCULATE(
    MAX('db_v_BaseCalendar_TYLY'[TransDate]),
    ALLSELECTED('db_v_BaseCalendar_TYLY'[TransDate]) )
RETURN
    DATESBETWEEN( 'db_v_BaseCalendar_TYLY'[TransDate],FirstDay,LastDay )

Thanks for your help!

Please try this

 

 

Total Days =
CALCULATE (
    DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'db_v_BaseCalendar_TYLY'[TransDate] )
)

 

 

Not sure about your data model and slicer actions. If this is not working then share your sample dataset and page snapshot.
