    Hi Anonymous ,

    Try this:

    IsAfterSelectDate =
VAR SelectDate =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
VAR CurrentClosedDate =
    MAX ( 'Table'[Date Closed] )
VAR CurrentIssuedDate =
    MAX ( 'Table'[Issued Date] )
RETURN
    IF (
        ISBLANK ( CurrentClosedDate )
            && SelectDate >= CurrentIssuedDate,
        1,
        IF ( CurrentClosedDate > SelectDate && SelectDate >= CurrentIssuedDate, 1, 0 )
    )

     

    Best Regards,

Hi there, Here is a small data example. Bascially, users want to be able to select a specific data filter and get a count of reports open at that specific date.  In the example below, we would expect a count of three open on 10. 1.2019.

Hi Anonymous ,

Try this:

1. Create a calendar table. It is independent of the other table.

Calendar = CALENDARAUTO()

2.  Create measures.

IsAfterSelectDate =
VAR SelectDate =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
VAR CurrentDate =
    MAX ( 'Table'[Date Closed] )
RETURN
    IF ( ISBLANK ( CurrentDate ), 1, IF ( CurrentDate > SelectDate, 1, 0 ) )
Count of Open = SUMX('Table',[IsAfterSelectDate])

 

PBIX file attached.

 

Best Regards,

Icey

    Thanks Icey. This almost works, but we also need to consider the issued date. For example, if someone selects an earlier date, the number should also change.   See below. This count should be 0 since none of the report were issued in January 1, 2017.

        Thanks Icey.  I got the number I was looking for, but when I created a relationship between the new CALENDAR table and my data table, it did not work. I need to be able to have a table of data results that users can export for reporting. Should the reltionship be on the ISSUED DATE or the CLOSED DATE?
