Filter row depending on year

Hello, I just want to make my filter dynamic on power query 

 

= Table.SelectRows(Source, each ([Product] = "MAC") and ([#"Year(based on client year end)"] = "2021"))

so instead of 2021,

I have created another table which holds the current year 

if Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow())< 7 then Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) else Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())+1

Hi, @Kalachuchi , based on your description, I think you can merge the calculation of current year into your selection this way,

 

= Table.SelectRows(Source, each ([Product] = "MAC") and ([#"Year(based on client year end)"] = Text.From(if Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow())< 7 then Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) else Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())+1)))

 

or more efficiently

 

cy = Text.From(if Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow())< 7 then Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) else Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())+1),
#"Selected Rows" = Table.SelectRows(Source, each ([Product] = "MAC") and ([#"Year(based on client year end)"] = cy))

 


Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!
