Count Values Between Two Dates

I have created the below column chart which is correct however the DAX code I used to create the columns is far too long.

 

I want to show the values of Asset Class between Sep 19 to Feb 20 and the same between March 20 to Sep 20

What is the cleanest formulat to calculate values between two dates, my current formula involved selecting each individual day (example below)

@DominicK, you can try as

calculate(countA(Sheet1[Asset Class]), filter(Sheet1,Sheet1[Date] > date(2019,09,01) && Sheet1[Date] < date(2020,02,29)))

You can try this with the date table

calculate(countA(Sheet1[Asset Class]), DATESBETWEEN(DAte[Data], date(2019,09,01), date(2020,02,29)))

You can use date segmentation and this will work -countA(Sheet1[Asset Class])

To get the best out of the time intelligence function. Make sure that you have a date calendar and that it has been marked as the date in the model view. Also, join her with the date column of your events. Recommended:

@amitchandak 

Thank You!

 

I will be looking at automating this report.

 

Do you have any advice on how to create a measure that shows a rolling 6 months?

 

Next quarter I will want to run this again but the dates will be different( December 2019 - June 2020 and July 2020 - December 2020)

 

 

Thanks!
