Filter report by date corresponding to dates on or between two date columns

[tslupphaug]

Background / setup:

I got three fact tables (data from three different Sharepoint Lists) linked up to one Date Dimension Table. I'm using a date slicer to filter my report so that I can view how many items that were created on any particular day. 

Problem:

For one of the fact tables, instead of showing items created per date, I'd like to view "Valid items" for any given date. Valid items will be items where the chosen date falls on or between separate columns for "Valid from" and "Valid to".

I'm not too experienced with Power BI, and I can't wrap my head around how this could be achieved. Hope someone can give some guidance on the matter. 🙂

Hi,

Share some data to work with and show the expected result.

Example data:

Facts 1

Created	Title
01-25-2023	Test record 1-1
01-25-2023	Test record 1-2
01-23-2023	Test record 1-3
01-18-2023	Test record 1-4

Facts 2

Created	Title	Valid from	Valid to
01-25-2023	Test record 2-1	01-25-2023	01-30-2023
01-25-2023	Test record 2-2	01-25-2023	01-30-2023
01-22-2023	Test record 2-3	01-22-2023	01-27-2023
01-18-2023	Test record 2-4	01-19-2023	01-23-2023

Dates

(and so on)

Report (expected result)

Example A

Date slicer set to: 01-25-2023

Count Facts 1 (Created on 01-25-2023): 2

Count Facts 2 (Valid on 01-25-2023): 3

Example B

Date slicer set to: 01-24-2023

Count Facts 1 (Created on 01-24-2023): 0

Count Facts 2 (Valid on 01-24-2023): 1

Hi, @tslupphaug 

You can try the following methods.

Count1 = CALCULATE(COUNT('Facts 1'[Title]),FILTER(ALL('Facts 1'),[Created]=SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date])))+0

Count2 =
CALCULATE ( COUNT ( 'Facts 2'[Title] ),
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'Facts 2' ),
        [Valid from] <= SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Date'[Date] )
            && [Valid to] >= SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Date'[Date] )
    )
) + 0

Is this the result you expect?

Yes, this is exactly the result I want. Thank you!

@v-zhangti How could I also show a table in my report with all the valid items?
