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.

AdrianThread, assuming you have a FiscalYear field in your date dimension:
// Boolean flag, true in current fiscal year
CurrentFY =
VAR
CFY =
LOOKUPVALUE(
DimDate[FiscalYear]
,DimDate[Date]
,TODAY()
)
RETURN
DimDate[FiscalYear] = CFY
// Integer flag, 1 in current fiscal year
CurrentFY =
VAR
CFY =
LOOKUPVALUE(
DimDate[FiscalYear]
,DimDate[Date]
,TODAY()
)
RETURN
1 * (DimDate[FiscalYear] = CFY)It's best to avoid duplicating the same logic in multiple fields. Since you likely have the same logic in a [FiscalYear] field as in your definition of [IsInCurrentFiscalYear], you'd have to worry about keeping them in sync if you find an error. With the constructions above, you only define the fiscal year logic in one place and updates to it are automatically propagated.
Thanks greggyb, I don't have a fiscal year field in my raw data so I needed to make a measure. I certainly agree with not duplicating logic over multiple fields and measures. Thanks again.
