    I found the solution from another post calculating sum for max date. 

     

    Instead of using LASTDATE in my formula to find latest date in Sales Table I used MAX. 

     

    original code

    Margin % Last 28 Days Sales = 
CALCULATE (
    [Total Margin %],
    DATESINPERIOD ( 'Sales Report'[Sales Date], LASTDATE ( 'Sales Report'[Sales Date] ), -28, DAY )
)

     

    updated code

    Margin % Last 28 Days Sales_V2 = 
VAR LatestDate = 
CALCULATE(MAX('Sales Report'[Sales Date]), 
ALL('Sales Report'))
Return
CALCULATE (
    [Total Margin %],
    DATESINPERIOD ( 'Date'[Date], LatestDate, -28, DAY )
)

Hi jamuka ,

 

Maybe you can try DATESBETWEEN function. Such like below:

sumOf_date = 
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
    DATESBETWEEN ( 'Table'[Date], DATE ( 2022, 9, 25 ), TODAY() )
)

 

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and test data. Looking forward to your reply.


Best Regards,
Henry

hello v-henryk-mstf,

 

thank you for you reply.

I don't want to add static date to my measure because that means I have to change it every time.

Which at the moment I did by filtering my visual via date filter. I attached a sample file to my post.

 

kind regards
