To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.

    Hi, actually, I am sorry it’s not the Dax formula I need.

    I need help with 2 things – can you please refer to the snippet of part of the Dax import query.

    For the date part of the query (which I boxed in red), I need help to modify this part of the query so that:

    1. The output shows the date in date only format, not date/time;
    2. The output is for trailing 12 months + 13 days into the 13th month, so if I were pulling it today, the output would be for Jun 2022-May 2023 (trailing 12 months) + Jun 13, 14, etc.

     

    Would you be able to help with this?

    Thanks in advance!
