Display only matching Measure values. Example file Included (file now added).

I have the below measure...

 

Test 2 =
VAR FirstDatePeriod = CALCULATE(MIN('Date Table'[Date]),ALLSELECTED('Date Table'[Date]))
VAR AttritionDate = SELECTEDVALUE('Attrition'[Attrition Date])
VAR FirstDateWorkfore = SELECTEDVALUE('Attrition'[First Day Workforce])
Return
IF(FirstDatePeriod = AttritionDate, FirstDateWorkfore, 0)
 
The measure gets the First Date (FirstDatePeriod) from the selected (MIN) slicer date range, then gets the Attrition Date (Attrition Date) and then finally gets the First Date Workforce (First Date Workforce) value.  It then compares the "First Date" value with the "Attrition Date" value and if it matches it gets the corospnding "First Date Workforce" value.

The measure works great if the table includes the "Attrition Date", etc.columns, and eiter displays the "First Day Workforce or "0".  But I just want to display the rows where the dates match and not the rows with 0.

The Last Period Date is picking the last date of Dec 31st where the Attrition table has values which are the begining of each month. So essentially you are comparing 31 Dec 2023 to 01 Dec 2023.
Try this calculated column...

Test 4 =
var _lastDatePeriodTable =
SELECTCOLUMNS('Date Table', "_startOfMonth", STARTOFMONTH('Date Table'[Date]))
var _lastDatePeriod =
MAXX(_lastDatePeriodTable, [_startOfMonth])
var _vTable =
FILTER(Attrition, Attrition[Attrition Date] = _lastDatePeriod)
return
MINX(_vTable, [Last Day Workforce])

Test 3 =
var _firstDatePeriod =
CALCULATE(MIN('Date Table'[Date]),ALLSELECTED('Date Table'[Date]))
var _vTable =
FILTER(Attrition, Attrition[Attrition Date] = _firstDatePeriod)
return
MINX(_vTable, [First Day Workforce])

Something like this might get you pointed in the right direction.

Thanks and that seems to do the trick 👍 

 

I then also wanted to get the "Last Day Workforce" figures (in Blue)...

and simply changed your to code to (in Red)...

Test 3 =
var _LastDatePeriod =
CALCULATE(MAX('Date Table'[Date]),ALLSELECTED('Date Table'[Date]))
var _vTable =
FILTER(Attrition, Attrition[Attrition Date] = _LastDatePeriod)
return
MAXX(_vTable, [Last Day Workforce])

but its not displaying any figures

What am I missing?

 

 

 

 

Is anyone able to assit with getting the "Last Date Workforce" values, similar to the "First Date Workforce" code? as tried various things, but cant figure it out.

 

Thanks in advance.
