Hi,
I want to insert years as a title into a card. Like shown in the picture.
The last card "2022" is always this year. I did this with the formula "=NOW()"
Each year the title should change to the next year.
But I dont know how to set the title for the previous year and the title for two years ago.
Is there a formula, with which i can just say: "Give me this year minus 1 year ?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.
Solved! Go to Solution.
If you want a date you a year ago you can create the following measure:
Hi @Nanaki,
Try using the PREVIOUSYEAR() function along with the YEAR().
Here's the documentation: PREVIOUSYEAR function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Docs
I hope it helps
@Nanaki ,measure or column as per need
This Year = year(Today())
Next Year = year(Today()) +1
Last Year = year(Today()) -1
Thank you for your fast reply.
But I still get strangely 1905 for the last year.
@Nanaki Can you share screen shot of your date column and check which data type it is.
In the first picture you can see the formula "today" with the today date.
And in the 2. picture with "year(today)" i get the year 1905.
Hi @Nanaki,
13-7-1905 is the date value of number 2021. You can see this e.g. in Excel by changing the format into Short Date of a cell containing 2021.
I can reproduce the behaviour you experience when I create a new column instead of a measure
Defintions:
Solution is then to create a measure with that definition.
But with that solution I wont get the year 2021 in a date format right? Only in a number format ?
If you want a date you a year ago you can create the following measure:
Awesome, this worked. Thank you very much to all of you!
I dont have a column, I just have this formula. I created it manually as a measure and wanted to insert it into one card.
