Display this week & this month data
- 10 years ago
HI VK
This is pretty easy - one of the main reasons I like Power BI.
First thing is that you need to have another table that has just Dates in it.
Create a link between the date data in your Opportunity table and then you can create calculated colums in the dates table that will provide you with the answers.
1. Dates Table
Good table to start out with is http://blog.crossjoin.co.uk/2013/11/19/generating-a-date-dimension-table-in-power-query/
this will give you Date,DayOfMonth,Year,DayOfWeekNum etc.Then create the following
DAX Measures
Today:=DATE(year(now()),MONTH(NOW()), DAY(NOW()))
DAX Calculated Columns
IsInCurrentYear
=if(YEAR(NOW())= [Year],1,0)
WeekOfYearNumber
=WEEKNUM([Date],2)
IsInCurrentWeek=if([isInCurrentYear] && WEEKNUM(NOW())=[WeekOfYearNumber],1,0)
IsInCurrentYear = if(YEAR(NOW())= [Year],1,0)
// Column to see if it is the current yearIsInLastWeek
=if([isInCurrentYear] && (WEEKNUM(NOW())-1)=[WeekOfYearNumber],1,0)
IsLast30Days
=if(AND([Date]>=[Today]-30,[Date]<=[Today] ),1,0)
YearWeekNum = Concatenate(Dates[Year],Dates[WeekOfYearNumber])
WTD = IF(CALCULATE(VALUES(Dates[YearWeekNum]),Dates[Date]=TODAY()-1,ALL(Dates))=Dates[YearWeekNum]
&& Dates[Date]<=TODAY()-1,"WTD",BLANK())
// shows if its in the current Week To Date - can use as a filter
RelativeDate = [Date]-Today()
//shows the difference in days between today and a date
// good for looking into the future or so many days back in the past.
EOM = EOMONTH(Dates[Date],0)
//Add a column that returns true if the date on rows is the current dateIsLast7Days = if(AND([Date]>=[Today]-7,[Date]<=[Today]),1,0)
// 1 if is in the last 7 days
IsToday = Table.AddColumn(DayName, "IsToday", each Date.IsInCurrentDay([Date]))
//Column to see if it is the day today.
I use these extra columns all the time.
for your issue you can then just add filters on the page or the report for what you want.
Hopefully this will work.

Thank you so much elliotdixon !
These have been invaluable in designing my first forays into Power BI and helping me get my head around DAX for the first time.
In case other folks are looking here for an 'IsInCurrentFiscalYear' calculated column that returns 1 or 0, here's one that's working for me:
IsInCurrentFY = CALCULATE(sumx(dates,if( dates[year] = year(today())-1 && dates[month] >= 7, 1, if(dates[Year]=YEAR(TODAY()) && month(today()) < 7 && month(Dates[Date]) < 7, 1, if(dates[year]=year(today()) && month(today()) > 6 && Dates[Month] > 6, 1, 0)))))
Hope this checks out...
Thanks again,
Adrian
I find it easier to use:
=Date.IsInCurrentYear
=Date.IsInCurrentWeek
=Date.IsInCurrentMonth
all of these functions can be used in the Query Editor.
Just another method of creating the same output.
