Dynamically calculate Measure value based on Slicer Selection

Hi,

My requirement is create measure which calculate distinct count of rows and i have one date column which i need to check with user selected Date slicer.

 

CONTROL PROVIDERS = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(NETWORK[Merged Colum]),FILTER(NETWORK,NETWORK[EFFECTIVE_DT]<=SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Start_Date])))
 
I Created one date table with start date column which has property "After".
 
SO my measure is showing blank values. I dont know why.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Did you create relationship between date table and the fact table in your scenario? Here I created a sample for your reference.

 

Measure = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(NETWORK[Merged Colum]),FILTER('NETWORK','NETWORK'[EFFECTIVE_DT]<=SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date])))

Hi,

Create a relationship from the EFFECTIVE_DT column to the Start Date column of the Date Table.  Create a slicer and drag Start Date column from the Date Table.  Select a Date there.  Write these measure

Count = DISTINCTCOUNT(NETWORK[Merged Colum])

CONTROL PROVIDERS = CALCULATE([Count],DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Start_Date],MINX(ALL(Date),'Date'[Start_Date]),MAX('Date'[Start_Date])))

Hope this helps.
