    Got it.
    Just had to add a new measure to get the first date in the quarter that the customer first date fell in

    First Date In Quarter =
    IF(ISBLANK([First Booking Date]),BLANK(),
    DATE(YEAR(First Booking Date], ROUNDUP( DIVIDE( MONTH( [First Booking Date] ),3 ),0 ) *3 -2 1))

    First Booking Date | First Date In Quarter
    ---------------------------------------------
    5/1/2021                | 4/1/2021

    Thanks,

I did a bit more testing.

It seems DatesInPeriod with the Quarter argument, is taking the Min(Date) and then next 91 days.
That is not what I need.

Let's say, a customer's min date is 11/1/2021. That date falls in Q4 '21 so I need the Net Revenue for the Customer in Q4 '21. Even though the customer in this instance does not have Revenue prior to 11/1/2021, I need the SUM for Q4 which is 10/1/2021 - 12/31/2011.

Thanks,
