DAX end of month selection

[Anonymous]

I would like to write a DAX to count the number of 'yes' as shown in the column [one-year@work], which is not in the data model and i would like to avoid creating a calculated column. 

The DAX should check through the column [left] and find out if the date is 31.12 of the year (it could be any year 2018, 2019,...) or empty, both cases are to be evaluated as positive and counted. See my effort below.  Thankful for any pointers and solutions ...

SWITCH (
    TRUE ();
    VALUES ( table[Position] ) = "worker"; CALCULATE (
        CONTAINSSTRING ( data[Funktion]; "worker" );
        ISBLANK ( data[left] ) OR NOT(ISBLANK(endofmonth(data[left])))
    );

Hi @Anonymous ,

We can use the following measure to meet your requirement,

Measure = 
SWITCH (
    TRUE(),
    MAX('Table'[Position])  = "worker",
    CALCULATE (
       CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Position]),'Table'[Position]="worker")
        ,FILTER('Table', ISBLANK('Table'[left]) || ENDOFYEAR('Table'[left]) = 'Table'[left]))
        )

The result like this,

If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please show the exact expected result based on the table that you have shared?

BTW, pbix as attached.

Not sure what this is counting and why you aren't using DATEDIFF, but could you try (as a MEASURE):

CountOneYr@Wk= COUNTROWS(FILTER(Table, ISBLANK(Table[left]) || ENDOFYEAR(Table[left]) = Table[left]))))

@AllisonKennedy  thanks for your quick respond.  But it has to be done in a switch and calculate expression as i am working on a huge dashboard and dont want to change a lot.
