DATESBETWEEN function Error

Hello,

 

I need to find the sales to quote ratio for the current month, sales are calculated based on ActionAttemp date column in a table and quotes are calculated based on Createdtime date column in the same table.

for finding the sales based on ActionAttempt date I wrote the following:

SalesActionDate =
CALCULATE(
    SUM('Leads'[SOLD]),
    (DATESBETWEEN('Leads'[lastAction_timestamp],
        {DATE(2021, 3, 1) + TIME(00, 01, 01) },{DATE(2021, 3, 31) + TIME(12, 01, 01)})
))
 
And I got this error for calculation, any suggestion?

Hi @timazarj 

You can make some changes to your Measure as the following if you don't want to create a Calendar table.

 

SalesActionDate =

CALCULATE (

    SUM ( 'Leads'[SOLD] ),

    FILTER (

        'Leads'[lastAction_timestamp],

        'Leads'[lastAction_timestamp]

            >= ( DATE ( 2021, 3, 1 ) + TIME ( 00, 01, 01 ) )

            && 'Leads'[lastAction_timestamp]

                <= ( DATE ( 2021, 3, 31 ) + TIME ( 12, 01, 01 ) )

    )

)

 

Here is a sample.

Hi @timazarj 

DATESBETWEEN  is a Time intelligence function therefore you need a Calendar Table in your model. Your actual Leads Table contains duplicate dates, Can't be for the use of DATESBETWEEN.
