Dynamic Dim date table - Dax
Hi,
I am trying to create a Dimdate table in power bi and the table should contain all dates from today's month last year till today. I have used CALENDAR(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())-13,DAY(TODAY())),today()) however it is not solving my purpose as the result contains dates from today's date 13 months ago till today. I need the table to contain dates from 1st of same month last year till today
Eg - as today is 10/13/2017, the table contains data from 10/13/2016 till 10/13/2017 but i need my table to contain data from 10/1/2016 till 10/13/2017
Thanks in advance

Hey,
I just copied this statement from sample table, on a 2nd look I realized that the CALENDAR(<Startdate>, <Enddate>) function was missing, but now it's complete
Table = CALENDAR( DATE(YEAR(TODAY())-1,MONTH(TODAY()),1), TODAY())

Hey,
try this
CALENDAR= DATE(YEAR(TODAY())-1,MONTH(TODAY()),1), TODAY())
Hopefully this is what you are looking for
