Create and keep COUNT data record into calendar

Hi Everyone,

 

Good day. I would like to seek help on how can I create a daily or monthly record in power bi. I am using IF statement that if the date is TODAY() count the column. My problem is my formula does not keep a record of the previous days count, it only shows todays data.

 

Here is my data. I want to have a record of the daily count. Thanks in advance for the help.

    Hi Bogz ,

     

    According to your statement, I think you want to calculate the count by date. If you want want to have a record of the daily count, you don't need Today() and IF(). 

    Firtstly, Today() will return today‘s date. For example, today is 2023/1/16, so today will only return 2023/1/16. So your code will only return the count on 2023/1/14.

    I think there should be a relationship between 'Security Concept' and 'Date' tables.

    Count = COUNT('Security Concept'[Asset Name])

     

    Best Regards,

      Sorry for the lack for information and if its not clear. I actually wants to have an inventory of the daily count of Security Concept [Asset Name]. I manage to achieve it by using power automate to export the daily data count to excel then use it back to power bi. Thank you so much for the reply. I will share my solution once completed.
