Hi,
I have been trying to tackel this DAX formula for a while now, it seems so simple but I cannot get it to work.
I'm have a table which list's out months start and end date, within that month there is a budget [Leads] and then a daily budget [Leads Daily Budget]. see below
The Multi row card below is what I'm trying to achive. but the budget figure is wrong.
I need to be able to calaculate the number of days in the previous month relative to today() then * by [Leads Daily Budget] for that month. any assistance will be aprricated,
Dobby
Solved! Go to Solution.
DAX has an EOMONTH command, use that in relation to today and offset it by -1 and -2 to get the end date of the last two months, it should be easy enough to datediff and adjust from there
This worked for me. I'll show my DAX below incase anyone gets a similar issues I created 3 measures,
Prv Month = EMONTH( TODAY(),-1)
Prv Month*2 = EMONTH( TODAY(),-2)
This gives me the 31 days which there was in August
last month day mul Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount])*CALCULATE(maxx(Sales,day(EOMONTH(DATEADD(Sales[Sales Date],-1,MONTH),0)))),DATESMTD('Date'[Date Filer]))
Hi @Anonymous ,
Number of Days in last month = is it no of working days in last month or total number of days in lastmonth?
If I'm honest I was just looking for total days but if working days is a possibility it certainly would be better

Hi,
I believe you would have got a date table if not add a table with the below dax
Hi @Anonymous ,
Thanks for taking the time to look into my issues, funfortuantly this didn't work! It returns a value of 3913... I copied your steps exactly as well (as in I created a new date table) and copied your code.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Just checking do you have a relationship set up between the New date table you have created and your fact table in the Model?

Prime
Hi @Anonymous ,
Come to think of it I don't think I did! I have found the temp solution to this as posted above. I'll probably come back and look at you're method in a few months when refining to get working days instead of total days. thank you very much for the time invested in looking at this.

and I think you could use Time-intelligence to create a measure to get it.

The expeced results for a previous month would be
15 Leads
31.58 Budget
-16.58 Variance
The calculations should be
Leads = Number of records in the 'leads' with a [created date] of last month
Budget = Calculate( Sum('Leads Budget'[Leads Daily Budget]) *Number of day in last month if it relates to that month) // Number of days in last month is the figure I cannot get.
Variance = Sum (Leads - Budget)
I hope this is enough information
