    Giavo I am just looking for sample data not actual data, but anyway I guess you are looking for this..

     

    Test122Count = 
    VAR _SelectedYear = SELECTEDVALUE(_DimDate[Year])
    VAR _Temp = FILTER(Test122,
     ((YEAR(Test122[Date1])<=_SelectedYear || YEAR(Test122[Date2])<=_SelectedYear) && (YEAR(Test122[Date3])>=_SelectedYear || YEAR(Test122[Date4])>=_SelectedYear)))
    VAR _Temp1 = IF(COUNTROWS(_Temp)>0,1,0)
    RETURN SUMX(_Temp,_Temp1)

    Hi Giavo,

     

    I think the following formula should do what you expect, essentially it will count the rows on the 'Project Milestones' table where the conditions are met based on the selected value

     

    Active in X =
VAR SelectedYear=SELECTEDVALUE('Calendar'[Year])
RETURN 
Calculate(CountRows('Project Milestones'), FILTER('Project Milestones', (YEAR(Date 1)<=SelectedYear || YEAR(Date 2)<=SelectedYear) &&
(YEAR(Date 3)>= SelectedYear || YEAR(Date 4)>=SelectedYear)))

What if I wanted to select a date range instead of passing the year in the Selectedvalue function. In my case, I have created a measure to get the Active employee count when I select the date as mentioned below

 

Active emp =
VAR _currdate =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'edw DateDimension_Vw'[Date_Dt] )
var _firstStartdate = MIN('edw EmployeeHistoryDimension_Vw'[EffectiveStartDate])
VAR _employees =
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
'edw EmployeeHistoryDimension_Vw',
'edw EmployeeHistoryDimension_Vw'[EffectiveEndDate] >= _currdate
&& 'edw EmployeeHistoryDimension_Vw'[EffectiveStartDate] <= _currdate
)
),
'edw EmployeeHistoryDimension_Vw'[StatusDescr] = "Active"
)
RETURN
IF ( ISBLANK ( _employees ), 0, _employees )

 

 

 

 

Now I would like to select a date range where(from date>hire date and to date between the effective start date and effective end date) how can I achieve this requirement?
