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.

Hi AdrianThread - great to hear the date codes are working for you.
I tried your code for Fiscal Year however got an error.
DAX comparison operations do not support comparing values of type Text with values of type Integer. Consider using the VALUE or FORMAT function to convert one of the values.
I think it has to do with the Month - what is the format of your month column?
I have MonthNumberOfYear and its just a whole number 1 - 12.
Cheers
elliotdixon Hello!
Thank you for your great suggestions. I've also found value in them!
Is there any possibility to create a measure which displays sum of sales for current week and month?
I'm trying to do this because in the same screen i need to display both values in the same screen and using a slicer does not work for me because it will filter all my data.
I've been searching the web for the past days to come up with a formula but no succes.
It would be of great help to me if i could find a solution to this.
BR,
Andrei
