Financial Year

Hi, is there anyway to create a financial year column that updates automatically going forward? 

Ideally, I'd like a column where is the date is between 1st April 2023 and 31st March 2024 to output 23/24. Then 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2025 to output 25/25 but then for logic to update next years automatically?

@M_SBS_6 

you can try this to create a column

 

FY = if(month('Table'[Date]) in {1,2,3},right(year('Table'[Date])-1,2)&"/"&right(year('Table'[Date]),2),right(year('Table'[Date]),2)&"/"&right(year('Table'[Date])+1,2))

Hi @M_SBS_6 

Try this:

FY = 
VAR _qtr =
    QUARTER ( dates[date] )
VAR _calendaryear =
    YEAR ( dates[date] )
VAR _yr =
    IF ( _qtr <= 1, _calendaryear - 1, _calendaryear ) -- Adjust fiscal year to the previous year for Q1 (Jan-Mar)
RETURN
    RIGHT ( _yr, 2 ) & "/"
        & RIGHT ( _yr + 1, 2 )
